Line A is perpendicular to Line B.
If the slope of Line A is 1/5
what is the slope of Line B?

Respuesta :

Answer:

The slope of line B would be -5

Step-by-step explanation:

Multiply the current slope by its negative inverse (flip the fraction and multiply it by -1).

Answer:

Slope= -5

Step-by-step explanation:

Perpendicular lines have Opposite Reciprocal Slopes, therefore if Line A has a slope of 1/5, then the opposite reciprocal of that is -5/1, also equal to -5
