You can put this solution on YOUR website!
a) has a slope of 2
\n" ); document.write( "b) has a slope of 1
\n" ); document.write( "c) has a slope of -1
\n" ); document.write( "d) has a slope of 1
\n" ); document.write( "Any perpendicular line must have a slope of the negative reciprical of the line it is pwerpendicular to. Thus:
\n" ); document.write( "Line c) is perpendicular to both lines b) & d).
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" );
