Q. Line j has a slope of 37. Line k has a slope of 73. Are line j and line k parallel or perpendicular?Choices:(A) parallel(B) perpendicular(C) neither
Identify Slopes: Line j slope: 37. Line k slope: 73.Check if slopes are same for parallel or opposite reciprocals for perpendicular.
Check Parallel or Perpendicular: Slope of line j is the reciprocal of slope of line k. 37 is the reciprocal of 73.
Confirm Perpendicular Relationship: Since slopes are reciprocals of each other, lines j and k are perpendicular.
