Perpendicular Lines definition
If the slope of one line is the negative reciprocal of the second line, then lines are perpendicular
Find the slope for both lines
Find the slope of y=2x−2:m=2
Find the slope of y=−12x+10:m=−12
2 is the negative reciprocal of −12 Hence the given lines are perpendicular
