Given an equation y = x -3
\n" ); document.write( "It is of the form y = mx +c
\n" ); document.write( "Where slope1 =1, c = -3
\n" ); document.write( "The slope of this equation is 1.
\n" ); document.write( "Since we are supposed to find the equation which is perpendicular to the given line.
\n" ); document.write( "Slope1 * slope 2 = -1
\n" ); document.write( "1* slope 2 = -1
\n" ); document.write( "Slope 2 = -1
\n" ); document.write( "Given point (4, 6)
\n" ); document.write( "The equation is given by
\n" ); document.write( "(y – y1) = slope2 * (x –x1)
\n" ); document.write( "(y – 6) = -1 (x -4)
\n" ); document.write( "(y - 6) = - x + 4
\n" ); document.write( "y = - x + 4 + 6
\n" ); document.write( "y = -x + 10
\n" ); document.write( "The equation for the line is y = -x + 10
\n" ); document.write( " \n" ); document.write( "
\n" );
