I need to know if this H(3,2),J(4,1),K(-2,-4),M(-1,-5) is parallel perpendicular or neither I need to show my work and write my

Shkiper50 [21]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

H(3,2) & J(4, 1)

$Slope = \dfrac{y_{2} -y_{1}}{x_{2}-x_{1}}\\\\=\dfrac{1-2}{4-3}\\\\\\=\dfrac{-1}{1}\\\\= -1$

K(-2,-4) & M(-1 , -5)

$Slope =\dfrac{-5-[-4]}{-1-[-2]}\\\\=\dfrac{-5+4}{-1+2}\\\\= \dfrac{-1}{1}\\\\\\= -1$

Line HJ and KM have same slopes. So, they are parallel
