Frequently Asked Questions
What makes two lines perpendicular?
Two lines are perpendicular when the product of their slopes equals negative 1, meaning they cross at a perfect right angle.
What is the perpendicular line to y = 2x + 1 through the point (4, 3)?
The perpendicular line has a slope of negative 0.5 and the equation y = -0.5x + 5.
Where does the perpendicular line cross the original line?
For a slope of 2 through (4, 3), the perpendicular line crosses the original line at the point (1.6, 4.2).
