Describe what it means for two lines to be perpendicular.
If two lines are perpendicular, state the product of their gradients.
State whether the following pairs of lines are perpendicular:
y = x + 1 and y = x - 1
y = 3 x - 7 and y = - 3 x + 6
y = - 3 x + 6 and y = \dfrac{x}{3} + 7
y = \dfrac{2 x}{3} + 4 and y = -1 - \dfrac{3 x}{2}
y = - \dfrac{x}{3} - 9 and y = - \left( 3 x - 27 \right)
y = 3 x - 5 and y = -\dfrac{1}{3} x + 6
y=-\dfrac{2x}{3}+1 and y=-1+\dfrac{3x}{2}
y=\dfrac{3x}{5}+6 and y=\dfrac{-5x-30}{-3}
