If equation for line is in form, , the line perpendicular has left member , and right-member may be different than C. You could try to use slope-intercept form to help to see the change in the left member.

Continuing with your given equation, you want ,



For slope-intercept form, solve for y in terms of x and adjust.


--------or if you prefer, .
