Question

Find the slope of a line perpendicular to a line through the given points.

E(5, 7), F(3, 1)
-3
-1/3
1/3 PLEASE HELP ME ILL GIVE MEDAL

Answer 1

So you first have to find the slop between those two points

Answer 2

Once you find the slope, it is 3. To have a perpendicular line, you have to have a negative reciprocal for the slope. So ,the new slope would be -1/3 because 3/1 is flipped and is being negated
