Question

Find the slope of a line perpendicular to the line whose slope is -11

Answer 1

Answer:

1/11

Step-by-step explanation:

The product of the slopes m1 and m2 of the two lines which are perpendicular to each other

m1 xm2 = -1

Here, let m1= -11

Therefore, slope of the line perpendicular to the line whose slope is -11 is

$m2 = \frac{ - 1}{m1} = \frac{ - 1}{ - 11} = \frac{1}{11}$

Answer 2

1/11 because it is the opposite reciprocal. And the new slope should be positive because it is the opposite.
