Which perpendicular? y = - 4. y- 6 = 5 (x+4) . y = - 1/5 x + 2. y = 3x + 3.

OpenStudy (accessdenied):

perpendicular means their slopes are opposite-reciprocals. first one has slope 0, second has slope 5 (point-slope form), third has slope -1/5 (slope-intercept), and the last has slope 3 (also slope-intercept).

I know what it means :) but do you know which are perpendicular?

OpenStudy (accessdenied):

the second and third are perpendicular 5 <=> -(5^(-1)) = -(1/5)
