Question

What is the perpendicular slope to 6/-3

Answer 1

Answer:

Perpendicular slope is $\frac{3}{6}$ or $\frac{1}{2}$.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

Let the perpendicular slope be x.

The given slope is $\frac{6}{-3}$

For perpendicular slopes, the product of the slopes is equal to -1.

Therefore, $x\times \frac{6}{-3}=-1\\-\frac{6}{3}x=-1\\6x=3\\x=\frac{3}{6}=\frac{1}{2}$

Therefore, the perpendicular slope is $\frac{3}{6}$ or $\frac{1}{2}$.
