The slope of line a is 3 what is the slope of a line perpendicular to a?
To find the slope of a perpendicular line, take the negative reciprocal of the slope of the given line. (Flip the top and bottom of the fraction and change the sign.) The slope of 3 can be written as 3/1. The slope of a line that is perpendicular is -1/3.
The slope of a line perpendicular to y equals -2x plus 3?
A perpendicular line has the negative reciprocal of the slope. The perpendicular line has a slope of 1/2 y=1/2 + 3 The 3 or y-intercept can really be any number though.
What is the slope of the line that is perpendicular to the line whose equation is 3x plus y equals 4?
3x+y = 4 y = -3x+4 Perpendicular slope: 1/3
What is the relationship between slope and a perpendicular line?
If a line has a slope m then a line perpendicular to it has a slope -1/m ( negative inverse). For example if a line has slope positive 2, its perpendicular has slope -1/2
What is the slope of the line that is perpendicular to the line whose equation is 2x - y equals 7?
-5
