    Get the equations in the same form.

    -2x + 8y = 6

    Add 2x to both sides.

    8y = 2x + 6

    Divide both sides by 8.

    y = 1/4x + 3/4

    y = - 1/4x + 10

    y = 1/4x + 3/4

    They are neither perpendicular or parallel. If it were parallel, both slopes would be 1/4x or - 1/4x, not different. If it were perpendicular, one of the slopes would have to be - 1/4x or 1/4x and 4x or - 4x.
