Answer:

(c) Perpendicular

Explanation:

The slope is the coefficient of x in this slope-intercept form.

The slope of the first line is +1.

The slope of the second line is -1.

The product of the slopes is (1)(-1) = -1. When the product of slopes is -1 for two lines, those lines are perpendicular.
