Answer» Correct Answer - Option 2 : -3/4 Given: A line is perpendicular to line 4x - 3y + 8 = 0. Formula used: y = mx + c Where m is the slope of the line. The product of slope of two perpendicular lines is –1 m1 × m2 = –1 Calculation: Let us find the slope of line 4x - 3y + 8 = 0 ⇒ y = (4/3)x + (8/3) The slope of the equation is (4/3) The product of slope of two perpendicular lines is –1 Let slop of the perpendicular line is m ⇒ m × (4/3) = –1 ⇒ m = –3/4 ∴ The slope of the line perpendicular is –3/4. |
