Question 1177583: Please help me with geometry triangle
Triangle ABC has been rotated 90° to create triangle DEF. Write the equation, in slope-intercept form, of the side of triangle ABC that is perpendicular to segment EF. You must show all work to receive credit.

Triangles ABC and DEF are shown. A is at 4, 2. B is at 4, 5. C is at 1, 2. D is at 2, negative 4. E is at 5, negative 4. F is at 2, negative 1. Line BC and line EF intersect at point 0, 1.
