You can put this solution on YOUR website!
first find the slope of the line that contains these two points.
\n" ); document.write( "(0,5) (-3,-4)
\n" ); document.write( " $\"+%285--4%29%2F%280--3%29+\"$
\n" ); document.write( " $\"+9%2F3+\"$
\n" ); document.write( " $\"+3+\"$ for two lines to be perpindicular to one another, their slopes need to be opposite recipricals on one another.
\n" ); document.write( "so the slope of the second line is -1/3\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( " \n" ); document.write( "
