We can start by finding the gradient of LM

Two perpendicular lines will meet the requirement

×

=-1
Two parallel lines have equal gradients
NM is perpendicular to LM, hence the gradient of NM is -1
KN is a line that is parallel to NM, hence the gradient is 1
KL is perpendicular to LM, hence the gradient of KL is -1
The equation the statement shows is 2x+3
The number 2852.1 is already rounded to the tenth since the tenth place is one place to the right of the decimal
