Find the slope with:
\n" ); document.write( " $\"m=%28y_1-y_2%29%2F%28x_1-x_2%29\"$
\n" ); document.write( "So, plug in our values:
\n" ); document.write( " $\"m=%283-0%29%2F%280-%28-2%29%29\"$
\n" ); document.write( "Simplify\"
\n" ); document.write( " $\"m=3%2F2\"$
\n" ); document.write( "So, and line that has an inverse and negative of this slope will be perpendicular to it.
\n" ); document.write( "Thus, you're looking for a line with a slope of $\"-2%2F3\"$ . \n" ); document.write( "
