Parallel Lines and Perpendicular Lines

Parallel Line: Then, m a = mb
a b

Perpendicular Line:

𝟏
Then, ma = − (or)
𝐦𝐛

ma × mb = -1
Important Algebraic Formulae

1) (a+b)2 = a2 + 2ab + b2
2) (a−b)2 = a2 − 2ab + b2
3) a2 − b2 = (a+b) (a−b)
4) (a+b)3 = a3 + 3a2b + 3ab2 + b3
5) (a− b)3 = a3 − 3a2b + 3ab2 − b3
6) a3 + b3 = (a+b)(a2 – ab + b2 )
7) a3 − b3 = (a− b)(a2 + ab − b2 )
