Well since the lines are parallel they would have the same slope. And the slope of any horizontal line is 0. The slope of a vertical line is undefined.
A vertical line has an undefined slope. For the line to be parallel to a vertical line, the slopes would have to be the same. Therefore, the line parallel to a vertical line also has an undefined slope.
The slope is undefined.
Undefined
If the original slope is 0, then the opposite reciprocal of 0 is still 0. Oops! Reciprocal of 0 (n/0) is undefined! A vertical line has undefined slope, the horizontal line has slope of 0.
