The line equation in slope-intercept form is , where m is the slope and b is the y-intercept.
Write the equation 1 in slop-intercept form .
Write the equation 2 in slop-intercept form .
Next find the slope of the equations.
\Slope of the first equation is .
Slope of the second equation is .
If two lines are parallel, their slopes must be equal. (Or)
\If two lines are said to be perpendicular,the product of their slopes is equal to .
Here in this case,the two slopes are neither equal nor their product is equal to .
The lines are perpendicular.
