Question

Determine if JK and LM are parallel, perpendicular,or neither . HELP AND PLS SHOW WORK !!

Answer 1

Answer:

1) not parallel

2)not parallel

Step-by-step explanation:

fist one intersect already

and second one will eventually intersect

Answer 2

Answer:

1 - Perpendicular.

2 - Neither.

Step-by-step explanation:

Use the slop formula to find the slope of the two sides.

$m = \frac{y_{2}-y_{1} }{x_{2}-x_{1} }$

$JK = \frac{4-9}{7-1} = \frac{-5}{6}$

$LM = \frac{1-13}{-2-8} = \frac{-12}{-10} = \frac{6}{5}$

Perpendicular - because a line that is perpendicular to another must have a slope that is the negative reciprocal of the first line.

$JK = \frac{6-(-5)}{2-13} = \frac{11}{-11} = 1$

$LM = \frac{-2-(-5)}{-4-(-1)} = \frac{3}{-3} = -1$

Not Parallel. Nor perpendicular.
