Perpendicular Bisector of AB.
Slope for AB is . The line perpendicular to AB must have slope .
Midpoint of AB is
and
.
As ordered pair of coordinates, this midpoint is (5/2,-1/2).
The line for any point P will be using POINT-SLOPE form for equation of a line. Simplify and put into whatever form you want.
