Question

  1. the slopes of jk and hn both equal 0. what can you conclude about the segments? the segments are congruent. the segments are parallel. the segments are rays. the segments are vertical.

Explanation:

Step1: Recall slope - parallel relationship

If two non - vertical lines have the same slope, they are parallel. A slope of 0 means a horizontal line.

Step2: Analyze the given segments

Since the slopes of $\overline{JK}$ and $\overline{HN}$ are both 0, they are both horizontal lines. Horizontal lines are parallel to each other.

Answer:

The segments are parallel.
