Answer:

parallel : (b) and (g)

perpendicular : (d) and (f)

Explanation:

straight line equation : y = mx + c

Lines that are parallel have the the same gradient(m),

(b) and (g) are parallel, both of them has m= 1/2

Lines that are perpendicular will have the product of their

gradient(m) equal to -1. So, m1 × m2 = -1

(d) and (f) are perpendicular, because : -4 × ¼ = -1

Hope I was able to help:))
