Question

Find the
equation of the perpendicular
line x = 5
passing through
the point (5,8)​

Answer 1

y - y₁ = m (x - x₁) Substitute the given point (5, 8) for (x₁, y₁) and 0 for slope (m). y - 8 = 0 (x - 5) Apply Distributive Property of Multiplication over Subtraction. Thus, the equation of the line perpendicular to line x = 5 is line y = 8
