What is the difference between a line with a slope of zero and no slope?
A line with slope of zero is horizontal. A line with no slope is vertical because slope is undefined on a vertical line.
If the slope of the green line is -3 what is the slope of the red line?
The lines below are perpendicular. If the slope of the green line is -1, what is the slope of the red line?
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 formula for slope of a straight line?
the formula for slope is y=mx+b, a horizontal line has the slope of zero and the slope of a vertical line can be answered as undefined
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.
