Answer:

  a.  perpendicular

Explanation:

A graph shows the lines have opposite reciprocal slopes (rise/run), so the lines are perpendicular.

__

Using the slope formula, the slope of the first line is ...

  m = (y2 -y1)/(x2 -x1)

  m = (11 -6)/(-7 -(-3)) = 5/-4 = -5/4

The slope of the second line is ...

  m = (4 -8)/(-4 -1) = -4/-5 = 4/5 . . . . . opposite reciprocal to the first slope
