Question

Is each line parallel, perpendicular, or neither parallel nor perpendicular to a line whose slope is −6? Drag each choice into the boxes to correctly complete the table. Parallel Perpendicular Neither

line n, with slope −6 line p, with slope 16 line q, with slope −16line

m, with slope 6

Answer 1

Is each line parallel, perpendicular, or neither parallel nor perpendicular to a line whose slope is −6?

Parallel, slope is the same, perpendicular slope is opposite and reciprocal

so

line n, with slope −6 , same slope -----> Parallel

line p, with slope 1/6 , opposite and reciprocal -----> Perpendicular

line q, with slope −1/6 , -----> Neither

line m, with slope 6, -----> Neither
