Find the norm of each vector and then it take its reciprocal and time it by -1.
Because the rule of perpendicular lines states in order for two lines to be perpendicular then their slopes ( in this case the magnitude) has to be equal to -1.
I hope I helped!

whats norm?
OpenStudy (anonymous):
The magnitude of the vector. Sheklek mesh qar2aa 2el so2aaal 7ateetee heik

wait can i check my work with u?
OpenStudy (anonymous):
yeah sure no worries. Solve it here so I can review your work.
OpenStudy (anonymous):
ok so for [u]=\[\sqrt{14}\] and for [v]=\[\sqrt{44}\]
OpenStudy (anonymous):
ok so it would be -1/\[\sqrt{14}\] and -1/\[\sqrt{44}\]
OpenStudy (anonymous):
Its should be :)

ok what do i do after this
OpenStudy (anonymous):
Thats it you get the magnitude of the vectore perpendicular to it.
OpenStudy (anonymous):
so those are the unit vectors perpendicular to both?
