Short Answer Rubric (2 points)

Answer 1

Parallel lines are two lines that never intersect and have the same slope, while perpendicular lines are two lines that intersect at a 90-degree angle and have slopes that are negative reciprocals of each other. The difference between the two is that parallel lines never intersect, while perpendicular lines do.
