the equation of the line that:
passes through the origin (,) and
the point (,)
first find a slope
use point slope formula for a line
.......substitute and (,)
-> your equation
the equation of the line that is perpendicular to this line:
the line that is perpendicular to this line will have a slope negative reciprocal to and it is
use
.......substitute and (,)
->the equation of the line that is perpendicular to -
