Find the equation of the line using the point-slope formula.
where is a slope and is y-intercept


if line is perpendicular to line , it has a slope negative reciprocal to a slope of the line
a slope of the line => is =>negative reciprocal is
so far your line is

and if passes through the point (, ), use it to find






your line is
