Question

Lines K and N are perpendicular If the slope of line K is -6, what is the slope of Line N

Answer 1

line N has slope m = $\frac{1}{6}$

given a line with slope m then the slope of a line perpendicular to it is

$m_{perpendicular}$ = - $\frac{1}{m}$

thus line N has slope - $\frac{1}{- 6}$ = $\frac{1}{6}$
