A line with slope of zero is horizontal. A line with no slope is vertical because slope is undefined on a vertical line.
The lines below are perpendicular. If the slope of the green line is -1, what is the slope of the red 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
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 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
A line with slope of zero is horizontal. A line with no slope is vertical because slope is undefined on a vertical line.
Slope of a line = m slope of perpendicular line = -1/m
The line perpendicular to a line with a slope of 1/5 has a slope of -5.
The slope of a line and the coordinates of a point on the line.The slope of a line and the coordinates of a point on the line.The slope of a line and the coordinates of a point on the line.The slope of a line and the coordinates of a point on the line.
If the line has a slope of 2, then the perpendicular line has a slope of -1/2. The slope of a perpendicular line is the negative reciprocal. Another example would be if the slope of a line is -1/4, then the slope of the perpendicular is 4.
The lines below are perpendicular. If the slope of the green line is -1, what is the slope of the red line?
if the slope of a line is 2/3, then the slope of a parallel line would be 2/3.
Parallel lines have the same slope. The slope of the second line is also 13.
No, the slope of a horizontal line is 0. The slope of a vertical line is undefined.
For two lines to be parallel they must have the same slope. A line parallel to a line with slope -2 would have a slope of -2.
The slope of a line measures the steepness of the line.
The slope of a line is undefined if the line is vertical.
