Math Problem Statement

The problem asks to find the slopes of two lines from a graph and determine if they are perpendicular.

Solution

The image shows a problem involving two lines, labeled "Line 1" and "Line 2," on a coordinate plane. The goal is to determine whether the lines are perpendicular. The question asks for the slopes of each line and then for an explanation on whether or not they are perpendicular.

Steps to Solve:

  1. Find the slope of Line 1: The slope is the ratio of the change in yy to the change in xx (rise over run).
  2. Find the slope of Line 2: Similarly, calculate the slope of the second line.
  3. Check for perpendicularity: Two lines are perpendicular if the product of their slopes is 1-1.

Would you like me to analyze the image further, such as determining the slopes and checking for perpendicularity?
