Assignment in Modern Geometry

Topic: Parallel lines and Perpendicular lines in 𝑅2

Instructions: Determine the vector equation of each line.

a. Parallel to y-axis and through P(3,4)

b. Perpendicular to 4𝑥 − 3𝑦 = 11 and through A(1,6)

c. parallel to [𝑥, 𝑦] = (3, −5) + 𝑡(4, −3) with x-intercept at −7.

d. Consider the line 𝑙1 = (3, −2) + 𝑡(4, −5)𝑎𝑛𝑑 𝑙2 = (1,1) + 𝑠(7, 𝑘)

 For what value of k are the lines parallel?

 For what value of k are the lines perpendicular?

PS. Write your answers and solutions on a 1 whole piece of paper.

To be submitted on Thursday.
