what is the parallel and perpendicular slope to this equation including all the steps to find this problem y =x + 6; Assume this is what you mean
:
Parallel is easy, parallel lines have the same slope, therefore
is the slope of any line parallel to the line of this equation
:
The slope relationship of perpendicular lines is given by:
m1 * m2 = -1
where
m1 =
m2 = the slope of the perpendicular line
:
* m2 = -1
multiply both sides by
1 * m2 = -1 *
m2 = is the slope of the line perpendicular to the given equation
