Question

The two lines shown below are perpendicular. If the slope of the red line is 4,
what is the slope of the green line? Use a slash mark (/) as a fraction bar if
necessary.

D was 4

Answer 1

Answer:

C

Step-by-step explanation:

Given a line with slope m then the slope of a line perpendicular to it is

$m_{perpendicular}$ = - $\frac{1}{m}$

Given the slope of the red line is 4 , then the slope of the green line is

m = - $\frac{1}{4}$ → C
