Find the slope of the line that is a)parallel and b)perpendicular to the given line:
y=3
---------
In slope-intercept form:
y = 0x + 3
Slope m = 0
---------
All lines parallel have the same slope, = 0
------------
All lines perpendicular have a slope that's the negative inverse,
m = -1/0
= undefined. They're parallel to the y-axis.
