For one line to be perpendicular to another, the relationship between their slopes has to be negative reciprocal −1/m. In other words, the two lines are perpendicular if and only if the product of their slopes is −1.
Hence C

The product of the slopes of l and k is −1.
this would be true always for perpendicular lines
