- 1/3
It is -1/2
The second equation works out as y = -1/2x+6 therefore it is perpendicular
y = 1/3x+4
In its general form of a straight line equation the perpendicular bisector equation works out as:- x-3y+76 = 0
negative 1
It is: 1/5
It is -1/2
- 1/3
The second equation works out as y = -1/2x+6 therefore it is perpendicular
y = 1/3x+4
In its general form of a straight line equation the perpendicular bisector equation works out as:- x-3y+76 = 0
For the line 2x + y = 8 , the slope equals ( -2 ) so the required slope of the line which is perpendicular to it is equal to (+1/2 )
It will be the positive reciprocal of -2 which is 1/2
the slope will be positive 1.5x the whole equation is y=4.5+1.5x
If a line has equation y = mx + c, the perpendicular line has gradient -1/m A line perpendicular to 3x + y = 2 has equation 3y = x + c; the value for c will be determined by a point through which the line must pass.
3x+y = 4 y = -3x+4 Perpendicular slope: 1/3
