Indicate the relationship between the line: 2x - 5y = 10 , and the line: 10x + 4y = 20 Which of the 3 is correct

Parallel
Perpendicular
They intersect at an angle other than 90 degrees

Perpendicular

Step-by-step explanation:

Here, we want to know the relationship between the two lines .

The easiest way to go about this is to get their slopes;

Mathematically, the equation of a straight line can be expressed in the form;

y = mx + c

where m is the slope;

Hence;

2x -5y = 10

Isolating the y part

5y = 2x -10

divide through by 5

y = 2/5x - 2

So the slope here is 2/5

for the second line

10x + 4y = 20

Divide by 2 all through

5x + 2y = 10

Isolate y

2y = 10-5x

Divide by 2 again

y = 5 -5/2x

The slope here is -5/2

What do we notice? we can see that if we multiply the two slopes by each other, we get -1

That is;

2/5 * -5/2 = -1

What this means is that both lines are perpendicular.

This is because the slopes of perpendicular lines, when multiplied by each other = -1
