Question
Use the image to answer the question.
Two parallel horizonal lines, line upper P upper S and line upper R upper Q, extend indefinitely in both directions. A slanted line, upper R upper S, intersects both horizontal lines and extends indefinitely in both directions.
The diagram shows the final step of a construction. Insert the symbol that makes the statement true.

the slope of RQ←→
.

Since PS and RQ are parallel lines, their slopes are equal. Therefore, the symbol that makes the statement true is "=".
