    Find the negative reciprocal of one slope.

    Example:

    y=4x+12

    the negative reciprocal of 4 is - 1/4

    the perpendicular equation would be y = - 1/4+12

    In order to make two linear equations perpendicular to each other, we need to find the negative reciprocal of the slope.

    In finding the negative reciprocal, we create a perfect 90° angle with the lines.

    Example:

    Given y = 2x + 3, find the perpendicular line.

    2 - > - 1/2

    y = - 1/2x + 3
