Question

Line f has a slope of -3/4 line g is perpendicular to f. What is the slope of like g

Answer 1

Answer:

Slope of line g = $1\frac{1}{3}$

Step-by-step explanation:

• Line f has a slope of $-\frac{3}{4}$
• Line g is perpendicular to f

* Mathematics rule: If two lines are perpendicular to each other, then the product of their slopes is equal to -1 .

∴ $-\frac{3}{4}$ × slope of line g = -1

Slope of line g = -1 ÷ $-\frac{3}{4}$ = 4/3 = $1\frac{1}{3}$
