Question 863577: Point C is located at the origin and is the center of a circle. Line l is tangent to the circle containing C at (-4,3) What is the slope of line l and write an equation for line l? Answer by josgarithmetic(39621) (Show Source):
You can put this solution on YOUR website! You want the line containing (-4,3) and perpendicular to the line defined by (0,0) and (-4,3). You do not need anything fancier such as the equation of the circle nor the use of Distance Formula.
