Look at the gradient of both the equations (the x multiplier, usually known as m), and there are a couple of rules:
Parallel: The gradients are identical
Perpendicular: Look at the gradients as fractions. To get the perpendicular to a gradient you flip the fraction and change the sign. If this is the case for the two gradients, then they are perpendicular.

*edited* I believe this is correct
We are given coordinates of a continuous function f(x)
(–2, 0)
(0, –2)
(2, –1)
(4, 0).
We need to find the possible turning point for the continuous function.
<u>Note: Turning point is a point on the graph where slope of the curve changes from negative to positive or positive to negative.</u>
<em>A turning point is always lowest or highest point of the curve (where bump of the graph seen).</em>
For the given coordinates we can see that (–2, 0) and (4, 0) coordinates are in a same line, that is on the x-axis.
But the coordinate (0, –2) is the lowest point on the graph.
Therefore, (0, –2) is the turning point for the continuous function given.
