Parallel lines have the same slope. So if you know the slope of a line in question, or you can calculate it, then you know the slope of any line parallel to that line.

If the slope of a line is zero What is the slope of the line that is parallel to it?
The parallel line would also have a slope of zero (both are horizontal lines).
What is the slope of a line parallel to a vertical line?
A vertical line has an undefined slope. For the line to be parallel to a vertical line, the slopes would have to be the same. Therefore, the line parallel to a vertical line also has an undefined slope.
What is the slope of a line parallel to a line whose slope is 0?
It is also zero as parallel lines have the same slope
Find the slope of a line parallel to the graph of y 4x 2?
y = 4x + 2 Find the slope of a line parallel to the given equation. First, let's take a look at what it means to be parallel. The easiest way to look at it, is to think of railroad tracks. Parallel lines are the same distance apart for EVERY point on the line. This means, parallel lines will NEVER, ever cross. There will never be a point in common with both. Now think about how this will help us with our slope in the equation. Try to answer the following. Our parallel line will have: a) the same slope as the given line OR b) a different slope as the given line That's right, (a). If you're asked to find the equation/slope of a parallel line to a given line, the parallel line will always have the exact SAME slope as your given line! Since our given line y= 4x +2 has a slope of 4, the parallel line to y = 4x +2 will also have a slope of 4. Remember, the general form of a linear equation is y = mx +b, where m = slope and b = y-intercept.
What is the slope of a line that is parallel to a horizontal line?
Well since the lines are parallel they would have the same slope. And the slope of any horizontal line is 0. The slope of a vertical line is undefined.
Find the slope of a line parallel to x equals -4?
the slope is infinite because you have a vertical line. To find a parallel line, the formula would be "x= any number" because that would also give you a vertical line.
