NRICH interactive straight line graphs

parallel lines

when the blue point is moved the new gradient is shown


 the gradient can go negative

when the red point is moved the line is shifted (translated) up or down











perpendicular lines

the origin is fixed, the other 3 points can be moved to create

parallel lines

perpendicular lines















translating lines

all four points can be moved

students could explore:
parallel
perpendicular
lines

or be asked to find pairs of lines that seem to intersect e.g. at the point (-3, 3)
