For perpendicular lines if the slope of one line is -2 what is the slope of the line perpendicular to it?

For any two perpendicular lines (save a vertical and a horizontal one), the product of their slopes is always -1. For two perpendicular lines with one having a slope of -2, the other will have a slope equal to -1 divided by -2, which equals 1/2.


What is the slope of a perpendicular line 4x plus y equals 2?

-- The slope of the graph of [ 4x + y = 2 ] is -4.-- The slopes of perpendicular lines are negative reciprocals.-- The slope of any line perpendicular to [ 4x + y = 2 ] is 1/4 .

Is y equals -2 a parallel line or a perpendicular line?

y=-2 is parallel to the x-axis and perpendicular to the y-axis.


How are intersecting lines alike to perpendicular lines?

intersecting lines are alike because perpendicular lines have to intersect to be perpendicular. 2: They are the same because they touch another line so they are the same.


What is the distance between 2 parallel lines measured along a perpendicular to the 2 lines?

The shortest distance between two paralle lines is the length of the line that is perpendicular to both line and intersects both.


Can 2 line be intersecting perpendicular?

Perpendicular lines intersect at right angles. (90°) Therefore, by the definition of perpendicularity, two perpendicular lines must intersect.
