This math topic focuses on finding the slope of the line perpendicular to a given line segment on a graph. It practices calculating the slope from given points and then determining the perpendicular slope using the negative reciprocal of the original slope. The problems are part of a broader unit on segments, mid-points, and perpendicular bisectors, aimed at introducing these geometric concepts. Each question requires identifying the correct mathematical manipulation to achieve the perpendicular slope from different coordinate pairs provided in the questions.
