Problema Solution
The equation of line CD is (y−3) = − 2 (x − 4). What is the slope of a line perpendicular to line CD?
Answer provided by our tutors
This is not an appropriate word problem but should be solved through algebraic tools from Algebrator.
A perpendicular line is "-1" time the inverse of the slope. The denominator of the slope must be non-zero.
The equation "(y−3) = − 2 (x − 4)" is graphed in order to place the equation in the standard linear form.
