Just use the point slope formula: y - y1 = m(x - x1) where (x1,y1) = (1,2) (a) using m = 3:That's this red line: (a) using m = Multiply both sides by 3 That's this green line: They're perpendicular because their slopes are negative reciprocals, which is the same as saying that when you multiply their slopes together, you get -1.
