Find the Slope of a Perpendicular Line y=41

$y = 41$

Step 1

Use the slope-intercept form to find the slope.

The slope-intercept form is $y = m x + b$ , where $m$ is the slope and $b$ is the y-intercept.

$y = m x + b$

Using the slope-intercept form, the slope is $0$ .

$m = 0$

Step 2

The equation of a perpendicular line to $y = 41$ must have a slope that is the negative reciprocal of the original slope.

$m_{perpendicular} = - \frac{1}{0}$

Step 3

The expression contains a division by $0$ . The expression is undefined.
