Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

If slope of two lines are equal, then they are parallel lines.

If product of the slope of two lines is (-1), then they are perpendicular lines.

C) y = x + 2

Slope m1 = 1

y = -x + 3

Slope m2 = -1

m1 * m2 = 1 * (-1) = -1

These are perpendicular lines.

D) y = 3x + 2

Slope = m1 = 3

y = 3x - 2

Slope = m2 = 3

Slopes are equal. So, they are parallel lines.

E)y= 3

This line is parallel to x -axis.

x = 4

This line is parallel to y-axis.

So, both lines are perpendicular to each other.

F) y = x + 8

slope m1  = 1

y = -x + 3

Slope = m2 = -1

M1 * m2 = 1 * (-1) = -1

So, These are perpendicular lines
