Question

Are the following lines parallel, perpendicular, or neither: y=-x+6 and y=x+1

Answer 1

Answer:

The following lines is perpendicular, y=-x+6 and y=x+1

Step-by-step explanation:

• Slope of parallel lines are equal

(ex. slope of 2 stays 2 )

• Slope of perpendicular lines to another is the negative reciprocal

(ex. slope of 2 becomes -1/2)

y = -x + 6 and y = x + 1

the slope for y = -x + 6 is -1    (-1/1)

the slope for y = x + 1 is 1

the slope -1 is the negative reciprocal of 1

hence, the definition of perpendicular fits the given
