Today we finish working with linear functions.  We'll look at two topics, point-slope form for the equation of a line and the relationship between slope and perpendicular or parallel lines.  This material is covered on pages 163-166 in the Engaging Algebra textbook.

3.6 Other Linear Function Topics 

After watching the first video you should be able to begin with point-slope form for the equation of the line and end with slope-intercept form.  After watching the second video you should be able to build the equation of the line after being told that two lines are parallel or perpendicular.
