if line l[1] has a slope of , and line l[2] is to l[1].
then the slope of line l[2] is negative reciprocal of
so,
example:
and line is
and line is

Line l[1] has a slope of 1/2. Line l[2]is perpendicular to l[1].
What is the slope of line l[2] = -2/1 (negative reciprocal of 1/2)
slope of line l[2] = -2
