find the equation for the perpendicular bisector of THE LINE from (0,0) to (2,2) hint: you need to find the midpoint of THE LINE and give me the equation that is perpendicular to THE LINE
-----------------
The midpoint is (1,1).
------
The slope of the line thru (0,0),(2,2) = 1
-----
Slope of the perpendiuclar line must be -1
------
Find equation of line with slope = -1 passing thru (1,1)
Form : y = mx + b
1 = -1(1) = b
b = 2
------
Equation:
y = -x+2
