No. Only lines that intersect at 90 degree angles are perpendicular. Any other lines that cross each other are simply intersecting lines.

What must be true about the slopes of 2 perpendicular lines?

The slopes of two perpendicular lines are negative inverses of each other. In other words, the two slopes when multiplied together equal -1.

In that case, the product of the slopes is equal to minus 1.


True or false perpendicular lines have opposite slopes?

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.


What is the slope of a line that is perpendicular to a line with a slope of .33?

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.


Two lines are perpendicular if they are parallel and cross?
