slope 5/2 and -2/5 would be perpendicular sae vise versa ,,, yes???

OpenStudy (anonymous):

same*

OpenStudy (anonymous):

yes

OpenStudy (mertsj):

Do you get negative 1 when you multiply them?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

-10/10

OpenStudy (anonymous):

which is definitely -1 for sure

OpenStudy (anonymous):

one is the negative reciprocal of the other, so you are in fine shape

OpenStudy (anonymous):

alright satellite what about -5/2 and -5/2 would be parallel following same problem rules

OpenStudy (mertsj):

The rule for parallel lines is that the slopes must be the same. And, of course, -5/2=-5/2 so the lines with those slopes would be parallel.
