If every triangle has 3 interior angles, they must also have 3 exterior angles. An exterior angle of a triangle is an angle formed by extending a side. As a result, the two non‐adjacent interior angles of an exterior angle are called the remote interior angles.
An exterior angle of a triangle has an interesting relationship with its remote interior angles.

Slopes of Parallel Lines:
If two nonvertical lines are parallel, their slopes are equal.
If the slopes of two distinct nonvertical lines are equal, then the lines are parallel
Any two vertical lines are parallel
You can test whether nonvertical lines are parallel by comparing slopes.

Are lines l1 and l2 parallel? Explain.

Write an equation for the line parallel to ‐4y = 8x + 3 that contains (‐3, 5).
Write an equation for the line parallel to y = ‐4x+3 that contains (1,‐2).
Slopes of perpendicular lines:
If two nonvertical lines are perpendicular, the product of their slopes is ‐1. If the slopes of two lines have a product of ‐1, the lines are perpendicular. Any horizontal line and vertical line are perpendicular.
To find the slope of a line containing the points (x1, y1) and (x2,y2), use the formula: m = y2‐y1 x2‐x1
