Nikolas · Answer 1

The slopes of the perpendicular lines are the negative reciprocals of each other. When they are multiplied together, the product should be - 1. From the choices, the answer would be third choice, - 3/4 and 4/3. These numbers are negative reciprocals of each other and would result to - 1 when multiplied.
