standard - MGSE9-12.G.GPE.5 Prove the slope criteria for parallel and perpendicular lines and use them to solve geometric problems (e.g., find the equation of a line parallel or perpendicular to a given line that passes through a given point).
learning targets Use the slopes of lines to determine if lines are parallel, perpendicular, or neither.
Write the equation of a line that goes through a given point and is parallel or perpendicular to another line.
