• Coordinates (x, y)
• Parallel lines have the same slope but different y-intercepts
• An undefined line is a vertical line
• Slope Formula:
  `\displaystyle m=(y_2-y_1)/(x_2-x_1)`

Explanation:

Step 1: Define

Point (3, 2)

Point (3, 1)

Step 2: Find slope m

Simply plug in the 2 coordinates into the slope formula to find slope m

1. Substitute in points [Slope Formula]:
   `\displaystyle m=(1-2)/(3-3)`
2. [Fraction] Subtract:
   `\displaystyle m=(-1)/(0)`
3. Simplify: m = undefined
