MYP Mathematics, gradient of a line, perpendicular & parallel lines
How can we find the slope of the line which is perpendicular to the line y=8x+2 ?
How can we find the slope of the line which is perpendicular to the line y=8x+2 ?
The answer is from www.ibmaths4u.com
If two lines are perpendicular their slopes are negative reciprocals and if two lines are parallel have equal slopes.
Regarding your question about the gradient of the line which is perpendicular to the line y=8x+2,
Let
be the required slope then we have the following relation
