Equations of Perpendicular Lines WORKSHEET

This worksheet is designed to provide scaffolding for learners to aid recognizing and finding equations of perpendicular lines. Section A asks learners to find the pairs of perpendicular lines from their equations. Section B wants learners to write the equation of a line perpendicular to another through a given y-intercept. Section C presents a line on a grid and asks for a perpendicular line equation through a given point. Section D gives an equation and asks for a perpendicular line through a given point. Section E asks for a line perpendicular to another through two other points. Section F is similar to section E, but the points are displayed on a coordinate grid. A final extension question asks learners to find the equation of a perpendicular bisector of two coordinates.
