Hi
Using the standard slope-intercept form for an equation of a line y = mx + b
where m is the slope and b the y-intercept.
Finding whether the pair of lines is parallel perpendicular or neither
5x+3y=10 OR y = (-5/3)x + 10/3 m = (-5/3) Green Line
3x-5y=9 OR y = (3/5)x - 9/5 m = 3/5
Lines are perpendicular (slopes are negative reciprocals, that is (-5/3)*3/5 = -1
