You might see a relationship if you were to write these equations in slope-intercept form:
\n" ); document.write( " $\"5y%2B3x+=+10\"$ ---> $\"y+=+%28-3%2F5%29x%2B10\"$
\n" ); document.write( " $\"3y-5x+=+6\"$ ----> $\"y+=+%285%2F3%29x%2B6\"$
\n" ); document.write( "Do you see that the slopes are negative reciprocals of each other?
\n" ); document.write( "Two lines whose slopes are negative reciprocals are perpendicular. \n" ); document.write( "

\n" );
