-5/3 it is always the opposite reciprocal for a perpendicular slope
Th opposite reciprocal. So if one line has a slope of 2 then the other line will have a slope of -1/2
The speed. Also, if a positive slope represents the speed in one direction, the negative slope is the speed in the opposite direction.
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.
The slope of a position-time graph measures the velocity of an object. A steeper slope indicates a higher speed, while a flatter slope represents slower movement. If the slope is positive, the object is moving in the positive direction, and if the slope is negative, it is moving in the opposite direction. A zero slope indicates that the object is at rest.
Parallel to the surface of the slope and opposite to the movement of an object on the slope. Parallel to the surface of the slope and up-slope, in the case of an object resting in place on the slope.
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.

No, the slope will be -1
Actually it IS. perpendicular lines have opposite reciprocal slopes and parallel lines have the same slope.
Each pair of opposite sides has equal slopes.

No, because a slope needs to be negative and opposite the other slope to be perpendicular and in this problem it is not.
The slope (rise over run) of one line will be a number (n) or (-n) and the perpendicular line's slope will be the exact opposite. So, for instance, if one line has a slope of 2/3, then a perpendicular line's slope must be -2/3, and vice versa.
