The correct Answer is:
To determine whether the given statements about the lines are true, we will analyze each statement step by step. ### Step 1: Identify the slopes of the given lines The equations of the lines are: 1. \( 2x + 3y + 5 = 0 \) 2. \( 3x - 2y + 1 = 0 \) We need to convert these equations into the slope-intercept form \( y = mx + c \) to find their slopes. **For the first line:** \[ 3y = -2x - 5 \\ y = -\frac{2}{3}x - \frac{5}{3} \] The slope \( m_1 \) of the first line is \( -\frac{2}{3} \). **For the second line:** \[ -2y = -3x - 1 \\ y = \frac{3}{2}x + \frac{1}{2} \] The slope \( m_2 \) of the second line is \( \frac{3}{2} \). ### Step 2: Check if the lines are perpendicular Two lines are perpendicular if the product of their slopes is equal to -1: \[ m_1 \cdot m_2 = -1 \] Substituting the values we found: \[ -\frac{2}{3} \cdot \frac{3}{2} = -1 \] Since this is true, the lines are indeed perpendicular. ### Step 3: Analyze the statements **Statement 1:** The lines \( 2x + 3y + 5 = 0 \) and \( 3x - 2y + 1 = 0 \) are perpendicular to each other. **Conclusion:** True, as we have shown that their slopes satisfy the condition for perpendicularity. **Statement 2:** Two lines \( y = m_1x + c_1 \) and \( y = m_2x + c_2 \) are perpendicular if \( m_1 \cdot m_2 = -1 \). **Conclusion:** True, as this is a standard condition for perpendicular lines. ### Final Conclusion Both statements are true, and Statement 1 is correctly explained by Statement 2.
