Graphing Lines Part 12
Standards
Use similar triangles to explain why the slope 𝑚 is the same between any two distinct points on a non-vertical line in the coordinate plane; derive the equation 𝑦 = 𝑚𝑥 for a line through the origin and the equation 𝑦 = 𝑚𝑥 + 𝑏 for a line intercepting the vertical axis at 𝑏.
