A reflection in a line l is a correspondence that pairs each point in the plane and not on the linewith point P' such that l is the perpendicular bisector of segment PP'. IF P is on l then P is paired with itself ... Under a reflection the image is laterally inverted. Thus reflection does NOT preserve orientation...
Since the inverse of a function is it's reflection over the line x=y, which has a slope of 1. The only way a function can be It'a own inverse is if it is a liner function whose slope is perpendicular to the line. Since a perpendicular line is any line with the negative recoprocal of the slope, any linear function whose slope is -1 will be it's own inverse. - stefanie math 7-12 teacher
The line perpendicular to a line with a slope of 1/5 has a slope of -5.
The slope of a line is undefined if the line is vertical.
Reflection of an object is the flip of that subject on a particular line, that is called line of reflection.
A line reflection preserves the shape and size of an object. It also preserves the orientation and distance between points on the object, but it does not preserve the direction or handedness of the object.

Reflections in mathematics preserve the size and shape of the object being reflected. They also have the property that the reflected image is the same distance from the line of reflection as the original object. Additionally, reflections can be described by an axis of reflection, which serves as a line that the reflection occurs across.
A line with slope of zero is horizontal. A line with no slope is vertical because slope is undefined on a vertical line.
Slope of a line = m slope of perpendicular line = -1/m

If the line has a slope of 2, then the perpendicular line has a slope of -1/2. The slope of a perpendicular line is the negative reciprocal. Another example would be if the slope of a line is -1/4, then the slope of the perpendicular is 4.
The lines below are perpendicular. If the slope of the green line is -1, what is the slope of the red line?
if the slope of a line is 2/3, then the slope of a parallel line would be 2/3.
Parallel lines have the same slope. The slope of the second line is also 13.
