Question

Line k is perpendicular to the line that passes through the points (5,6) and (6,10). What is the slope of line

k?

Answer 1

Answer: -1/4

Explanation:

The slope of the line whose points are given is
`(10-6)/(6-5)=4`

Perpendicular lines have the same slope, so the slope of line k is -1/4.
