This math topic focuses on determining the slopes that are perpendicular to given linear equations in slope-intercept form. The problems cover various equations where students must identify the slope that would result in a line perpendicular to each provided equation. The slopes are presented in both whole number and fractional formats, enhancing students' skills in working with different representations of slope. The overall goal is to deepen understanding of slopes and their relationships when lines are perpendicular.
