Question 1106405: what is the equation in standard form of a perpendicular line that passes through (5,1) I have tried several ways and am totally confused now but if m=1/3 y+1 = -1/3(x-5) y+1=1/3x+5/3 -1 y=-1/3x +2/3 1/3x+y=2/3 x+3y =2 Answer by ikleyn(52781) (Show Source):
You can put this solution on YOUR website! .
In your formulation, you missed to write the equation of the ORIGINAL line, which is VITALLY important information.
