Find the slope of any line perpendicular to the line through points (6, 3) and (7, 7).
\n" ); document.write( "The slope formula is:\"highlight%28m=%28y2-y1%29%2F%28x2-x1%29%29\"
\n" ); document.write( "(x1,y1)=(6,3) and (x2,y2)=(7,7)
\n" ); document.write( "\"m=%287-3%29%2F%287-6%29\"
\n" ); document.write( "\"m=4%2F1\"
\n" ); document.write( "A slope of any line perpendicular to this slope is the negative reciprocal of this slope, so change the sign and flip it over.
\n" ); document.write( "\"highlight%28m=-1%2F4%29\"
