1. Lines m and n are perpendicular. If the slope of line m is zero, then what is the slope of line n? If you were to sketchlines m and n, what type of lines would you sketch?2. On a graph, create your own set of perpendicular lines similar to lines m and n. Choose two points on each line andprove through the slope formula, that the lines are perpendicular to each other.

when lines are perpendicular to each other, they make 90 degrees to each other

whenever you have a slope of 0, it means the y-axis remains constant while the x-axis increases

since m has a slope of zero, that's why it's in that position while n increases

slope = y2 - y1 / x2 - x1

1. Lines m and n are perpendicular. If the slope of line m is zero, then what is the-example-1
