To determine the equation of line passing through
Answer to Problem 9CR
The required equation of line passing through
Explanation of Solution
Given information : Given equation of line is
Formula Used:The slope of the perpendicular line is negative reciprocal of slope of original line.
Given equation of line is
Here, slope of the line is
Therefore, slope of the perpendicular line will be
The equation of perpendicular line will be
Since, above perpendicular line passes through the point
Therefore, it must satisfy the equation of line.
Then,
Thus, the equation of required line is
