Proving the Slope Criteria for
Parallel Lines
The following theorem states an important connection between slope and parallel lines.
Theorem: Slope Criteria for Parallel Lines
Two nonvertical lines are parallel if and only if they have the same slope.
Follow these steps to prove the slope criteria for parallel lines.
A
First prove that if two lines are parallel, then they have the same slope.
Suppose lines m and n are parallel lines that are neither vertical nor horizontal.
Let A and B be two points on line m, as shown. You can draw a horizontal line
through A and a vertical line through B to create the “slope triangle,”△ABC.
_
You can extend AC to intersect line n at point D and then extend it to point F
so that AC = DF. Finally, you can draw a vertical line through F intersecting
line n at point E.
Mark the figure to show parallel lines, right angles, and congruent segments.

When parallel lines are cut by a transversal, corresponding angles are congruent, so
∠BAC ≅
∠EDF .
△BAC ≅ △EDF by the ASA Triangle Congruence Theorem.

The slopes of the lines are equal because the numerators of the fractions are equal and the
denominators of the fractions are equal (Division Property of Equality).

CNow prove that if two lines have the same slope, then they are parallel.
Suppose lines m and n are two lines with the same nonzero slope. You can set up a
figure in the same way as before.
Let A and B be two points on line m, as shown. You can draw a horizontal line
through A and a vertical line through B to create the “slope triangle,”△ABC .
_
You can extend AC to intersect line n at point D and then extend it to point F
so that AC = DF. Finally, you can draw a vertical line through F intersecting line n
at point E.
Mark the figure to show right angles and congruent segments.

But DF = AC, so by substitution, _ = _.

AC
Multiplying both sides by AC shows that BC = EF .
Now you can conclude that △BAC ≅ △EDF by the SAS Triangle Congruence
Theorem.
By CPCTC, ∠BAC ≅
∠EDF
.
Line m and line n are two lines that are cut by a transversal so that a pair of
corresponding angles are congruent.
You can conclude that line m is parallel to line n .
1.
Explain why the slope criteria can be applied to horizontal lines.
If two parallel lines are horizontal, then both lines have a slope of 0. If two lines both have
a slope of 0, then both lines are horizontal, so they are parallel.
2.
Explain why the slope criteria cannot be applied to vertical lines even though all
vertical lines are parallel.
The slope of a vertical line is undefined. So, you can’t say that two vertical lines have the
same slope.

quadrilateral is a trapezoid. Once you have found that pair, you can stop finding slopes.
10. A student was asked to determine whether quadrilateral ABCD with vertices A(0, 0),
B(2, 0), C(5, 7), and D(0, 2) was a parallelogram. Without plotting points, the student
looked at the coordinates of the vertices and quickly determined that quadrilateral
ABCD could not be _
a parallelogram. How do you think the student solved the problem?
Possible answer: AD is horizontal, so in order for ABCD to be a parallelogram, the slope of
_
_
the opposite side, BC, would have to be 0. However, the slope of BC is 7 - 0 = 7 ≠ 0.

Suppose you are given the coordinates of the vertices of a quadrilateral. Do you always
need to find the slopes of all four sides of the quadrilateral in order to determine
whether the quadrilateral is a trapezoid? Explain.
No; you only need to find one pair of opposite parallel sides to conclude that the

slopes are equal, then the lines are parallel.
