perpendicular lines, one that passes through the point (3,-4) and the other that passes through the point (7,2).

\n" ); document.write( "Choose a convenient slope and write an equation for the (3,-4) coordinates
\n" ); document.write( "Let m1 = 2
\n" ); document.write( ":
\n" ); document.write( "y - (-4) = 2(x - 3)
\n" ); document.write( "y + 4 = 2x - 6
\n" ); document.write( "y = 2x - 6 - 4
\n" ); document.write( "y = 2x - 10 is one line
