Question 64038: How do you write an equation of a line when given two pionts and a slope, but the other line must be perpendicular.....Example from my homework:
Write an equation of a line that contains the given point and is perpendicular to the given line
#1. (5,1); y=5x-2
And how would you solve one of these equations when given a graph with a line with a slope on it??
Thank you! Answer by josmiceli(6781) (Show Source):
You can put this solution on YOUR website! If an equation is in the form
any line perpendicular to it must have m = -(1/m)
from the problem,
The 2nd line goes through (5,1)
so, ther equation of the 2nd line is
