Question

A line is drawn on a coordinate grid by the equation x = 5. Which of the following lines would represent a row perpendicular to it?
A. a line containing the point (5,2)
B. y = 5
C. x = 5
D. x = 3

Answer 1

Answer:

y=5

Step-by-step explanation:

Perpendicular means what will make a 90 degree angle off of it. We know that the line is X=5, which is a vertical line. Y=5 is a horizontal line. So when you have a vertical line, then put a horizontal line through it, you will get a 90 degree angle, meaning it is perpendicular.

Answer 2

You’re answer would be y=5
