Given:
Line A:
Line B:
Line C:
Line D:
To find:
Which lines are perpendicular
Solution:
General equation of a line:
y = mx + c
where m is the slope and c is the y-intercept.
Slope of line A =
Slope of line B =
Slope of line C = 2
Slope of line D =
<em>Two lines are perpendicular if their slopes are negative reciprocal of one another.</em>
Negative reciprocal of is 2.
Therefore line B and line C are perpendicular lines.
