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.
If the slopes of two lines are negative reciprocals the lines are perpendicular?
Yes, if the slopes of two lines are negative reciprocals of each other, then the lines are perpendicular. This means that if the slope of one line is ( m ), the slope of the other line must be ( -\frac{1}{m} ). For example, if one line has a slope of -2, the other line must have a slope of (\frac{1}{2}) for the lines to intersect at a right angle. This relationship holds true in a Cartesian coordinate system.
A vertical line is perpendicular to the x-axis true or false?
True. A vertical line runs parallel to the y-axis and has an undefined slope, while the x-axis is horizontal with a slope of zero. Since perpendicular lines have slopes that are negative reciprocals of each other, a vertical line is indeed perpendicular to the x-axis.
What must be true about the slopes of two perpendicular lines neither of which is verical?
For two non-vertical lines to be perpendicular, the product of their slopes must equal -1. This means that if the slope of one line is ( m_1 ), then the slope of the other line, ( m_2 ), must satisfy the equation ( m_1 \times m_2 = -1 ). Therefore, the slopes are negative reciprocals of each other. For example, if one line has a slope of ( 2 ), the other must have a slope of ( -\frac{1}{2} ).
What has to be true about the slopes of two perpendicluar lines that's neither vertical?
The slopes are negative reciprocals.
If two lines are 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.If the lines are perpendicular, their slopes are negative reciprocals.
If the slopes of two lines are negative reciprocals the lines are perpendicular. true or false?
true (APEX)
If the slopes of two lines are negative reciprocals, the lines are perpendicular. true or false?
true (APEX)
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.
Do perpendicular lines have opposite slopes true or false?
No, the slope will be -1
What must be true about the slopes of two perpendicular lines neither of which is vertical?
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?
Parallel lines are never perpendicular. Perpendicular lines are co-planar and cross at right angles.
True or false Perpendicular lines form straight angles?
What is a 'Straight Angle'???? Perpendicular lines meet at 90 degrees ( right- angles).
is this statement true or falseIf a transversal is perpendicular to one of two parallel lines, then it is perpendicular to the other.?
true
