What will be the slope of the line perpendicular to the line 6x-3y-16=0?(a) 1/2(b) -1/2(c) 2(d) -2I got this question in quiz.My question is based upon Computational Geometry in section Computational Geometry of Data Structures & Algorithms II

Answer»

The correct choice is (B) -1/2

The BEST explanation: For two lines to be perpendicular the PRODUCT of their slopes should be EQUAL to -1. So as the slope of given line is 2 so the slope of line perpendicular to it will be -1/2.
