Answer:
The slope of the line that is perpendicular is 3/8
Step-by-step explanation:
The slope of the line through
(-6,4) (10,-2)
m = ( y2-y1)/(x2-x1)
= ( 10 - -6)/( -2 -4)
= (10+6)/(-2-4)
= 16/-6
=-8/3
A line perpendicular has a slope that is the negative reciprocal
- 1/( -8/3)
+ 3/8
The slope of the line that is perpendicular is 3/8
