whether the lines are perpendicular to each other. ( 5 marks)
2 The following information refers to the equations of two straight lines, JK and RT
which are perpendicular to each other.
JK : y px k
RT : y (k 2) x p
where p and k are constants.
3 The point P internally divides the line segment joining the point M (4,5) and
N ( 8, 5) in the ratio 2:5. Find the coordinates of point P . ( 2 marks)
