Line m contains the points a(-2,6) and b(4,8) while line n contains the c(8,12) and d(x,24) given m and n are perpendicular lines solve for the value of x given m and n are parallel lines solve for the value of x in your final answer include all formulas necessary to solve for x

tis noteworthy that perpendicular lines have negative reciprocal slopes, so if one say have a slope of a/b, the other has a slope of -b/a, so that, if we multiply both (a/b) * (-b/a) we get -1 as their product, that said, let's take a peek of the slopes of "n" and "m".

and well, since we know they're perpendicular

-2 is the right

1/8 3/16 3/4

step-by-step explanation:

you put them as all the same denominator and multiply
