Not for the usual definition of the word "opposite." The perpendicular of a line having a slope of 2 has a slope of -0.5.
Parallel lines are never perpendicular. Perpendicular lines are co-planar and cross at right angles.
What is a 'Straight Angle'???? Perpendicular lines meet at 90 degrees ( right- angles).
If the lines are perpendicular, their slopes are negative reciprocals.If the lines are perpendicular, their slopes are negative reciprocals.If the lines are perpendicular, their slopes are negative reciprocals.If the lines are perpendicular, their slopes are negative reciprocals.
In that case, the product of the slopes is equal to minus 1.

No, the slope will be -1
No. Only lines that intersect at 90 degree angles are perpendicular. Any other lines that cross each other are simply intersecting lines.

In Euclidean plane geometry, two lines which are perpendicular not only can but must intersect. (I believe the same is true for elliptic geometry and hyperbolic geometry.)
Perpendicular lines have slopes whose product is -1. As this is always true, if we think of .33 as about 1/3, then the perpendicular line would have a slope of -1/(1/3) which is -3.
In Euclidean plane geometry, two lines which are perpendicular not only can but must intersect. (I believe the same is true for elliptic geometry and hyperbolic geometry.)
True. A right angle is 90o so the lines which form it must be mutually perpendicular.
Parallel lines are never perpendicular. Perpendicular lines are co-planar and cross at right angles.
