Question

Find slope that is perpendicular to the line 4−2=12 ?

Answer 1

m = -1/2

Explanation:

4 − 2 = 12

= −2 = 12 − 4

= = (12 − 4) ÷ (−2)

= = 2−6

So, the slope is 2.

Now, keep this rule in mind: the product of a slope of two perpendicular lines will be -1.

Thus, the slope of the line that is perpendicular to this line is -1/2
