I'll do the first one to get you started.  

Find the slope of the line between R (6,-2) and S (-1,8) to get

m = (y2-y1)/(x2-x1)

m = (8-(-2))/(-1-6)

m = (8+2)/(-1-6)

m = 10/(-7)

m = -10/7

The slope of line RS is -10/7

Next, we find the slope of line DF

m = (y2 - y1)/(x2 - x1)

m = (4-11)/(11-(-1))

m = (4-11)/(11+1)

m = -7/12

From here, we multiply the two slope values

(slope of RS)*(slope of DF) = (-10/7)*(-7/12)

(slope of RS)*(slope of DF) = (-10*(-7))/(7*12)

(slope of RS)*(slope of DF) = 10/12

(slope of RS)*(slope of DF) = 5/6

Because the result is not -1, this means we do not have perpendicular lines here. Any pair of perpendicular lines always has their slopes multiply to -1. This is assuming neither line is vertical.

I'll let you do the two other ones. Let me know what you get so I can check your work.
