Answer:

Lines BC and F represent perpendicular lines

Step-by-step explanation:

we have

Line BC

[tex]y=2x+3[/tex]

the slope of the line BC is [tex]m=2[/tex]

Line F

[tex]y=-(1/2)x+4[/tex]

the slope of the line F is [tex]m=-1/2[/tex]

we know that

If two lines are perpendicular, then the product of their slopes is equal to -1

so

[tex]m1*m2=-1[/tex]

we have

[tex]m1=2[/tex] -----> slope line BC

[tex]m2=-1/2[/tex] -----> slope line F

Find the product of their slopes

[tex](2)(-1/2)=-1[/tex]

therefore

Lines BC and F represent perpendicular lines
