Example Question #1 :How To Find The Slope Of A Perpendicular Line
A line passes through the points
The original line has a slope of
Example Question #32 :Coordinate Geometry
Which of the following is the equation of a line that is perpendicular to the line
Perpendicular lines have slopes that are the opposite reciprocals of each other. Thus, we first identify the slope of the given line, which is
Then, we know that any line which is perpendicular to this will have a slope of
Thus, we can determine that
Example Question #1 :Perpendicular Lines
What will be the slope of the line perpendicular to
In standard
The slope of a perpendicular line is the negative reciprocal of the original line.
For our given line, the slope is

Which of the following is perpendicular to the line described by
垂直的直线是寡糖的定义r slopes are inverse reciprocals of one another. Since the slope in the given equation is
The answer
is the only equation listed that has a slope of
Example Question #12 :Perpendicular Lines
Which of the following is perpendicular to the line described by
垂直的直线是寡糖的定义r slopes are inverse reciprocals of one another. Since the slope in the given equation is
The answer
is the only equation listed that has a slope of
Example Question #13 :Perpendicular Lines
Which of the following gives the slope of a line that is perpendicular to
Recall that the slopes of perpendicular lines are opposite reciprocals of one another. As a result, we are looking for the opposite reciprocal of
Example Question #14 :Perpendicular Lines
斜率of the line perpendicular to
Put this equation into slope-intercept form, y = mx + b, to find the slope, m.
Do this by subtracting
The slope of this line is
The slope of the perpendicular line is the negative reciprocal. Switch the numerator and denominator, and then multiply by
Example Question #15 :Perpendicular Lines
What is the slope of the line perpendicular to
In standard
The slope of a perpendicular line is the negative reciprocal of the original line.
For our given line, the slope is
