Question

slope of perpendicular bisector of jk j is (5,2) k is (-7,2)

Answer 1

first you would need to find your slope
\[\frac{ y _{2} - y _{1}}{ x _{2} - x _{1}} \]

Answer 2

so 2 - 2 / -7 - 5

Answer 3

the slope would be undefined

Answer 4

so then the slope of a perpendicular is a negative reciprocal of the original slope
For example: original slope -> 2 ; perpendicular slope -> -1/2

Answer 5

your perpendicular slope is 0

Answer 6

thanks so much !! @san_dahan

Answer 7

wait hold one my bad, the slope is 0 and the perpendicular slope is undefined

Answer 8

hold on*

Answer 9
