please help i am new to this.

Answer 1

perpendicular lines means that when you multiply the slope of line 1 and slope of line 2 you will get -1
\[m_1 \times m_2 = -1 \]
say slope of green line = m1
this means that:
\[\frac{ 2}{ 3 } \times m_2 = -1 \]
divide both sides by 2/3 to find m_2 (slope of red line)

Answer 2

so what i mean is:
\[m_2 = -1 \div \frac{ 2 }{ 3} = ? \]
