No, the slopes of vertical lines and horizontal lines are not opposite reciprocals. A vertical line has an undefined slope, while a horizontal line has a slope of zero. Since the concept of opposite reciprocals applies only to non-zero slopes, it does not apply in this case.
perpendiculars("Opposite" is a pretty arbitrary condition in math. The slopes are negative reciprocals.)and by negative that person means the opposite of what it is already, negative or positive, it's not always negative
No, the product of reciprocals is 1.
If you multiply two reciprocals, their product must be 1.
If by "opposite" you mean "additive inverse", then yes.
I have a feeling that you wrote "opposite reciprocals"where you only needed to write "reciprocals".Their product is ' 1 '.
Their negative counterparts can be considered opposite. So can their reciprocals.

i think it is

Always. That is what a reciprocal is. in other words, if x = 1/y then y = 1/x

Every pair of mutual reciprocals has a product of 1 .
Perpendicular lines are lines that cross one another at a 90° angle. They have slopes that are opposite reciprocals of one another. Perpendicular lines intersect each other.
Reciprocals are important because they serve as a guideline on how much more you need to get one whole.
