Step-by-step explanation:

Equation of given line is:

y =  -  \frac{1}{2} x + 5 \\  \\ equating \: it \: with \: y =m_1x + c  \\ we \: find \:  \\ m_1 = -  \frac{1}{2} \\ let \: m_2 \: be \: the \: slope \: of \: required \: line \\  \\  \therefore \: m_1 \times m_2 =  - 1( \because \: lines \: are \:  \perp) \\  \\ \therefore \: -  \frac{1}{2} \times m_2 =  - 1\\  \\ \therefore \: m_2 = 2 \\

Thus, the slope of required line is 2.

KIM [24]
Actual = 6 feet.

Measure = 5.49 feet

Error = 6 - 5.49 = 0.51

% Error = (Error / Actual) * 100% 
 
              = 0.51/6 * 100% = 8.5%
