Anybody know this!? Help please ..
1 answer:
The slopes of perpendicular lines are negative reciprocal to each other
ex. the negative reciprocal to 5/2 is -2/5
once you find the perpendicular slope, you plug in the point and slope into the point-slope form of a line and then rearrange it into the slope-intercept form to get your answer
point slope
slope intercept form

5/8 is more than 11/20
If we find the lower common multiple of the denominators which is 160 then we can multiply the top numerators by the opposite denominators
5x20=100
11x8=88
We now have
The one on the left is simplified to 5/8 and the right is simplified to 11/20
