( -1, -3 ) and ( 3, 3 )
The x-value of midpoint:
The y-value of midpoint:
-----------------------
The midpoint is at ( 1, 0 )
-----------------------
The slope of this line segment is:
------------------------------
Any line perpendicular to this
segment will have slope
-------------------------------
Use point-slope formula
----------------------------
check:
does it go through ( 1, 0 ) ?
OK
