Answer:
Any line perpendicular to the line 3x+4y-1=0 is of the form 4x-3y+k=0. If this passes through (1,2) then 4–6+k=0 or k=2. Hence the equation of the perpendicular line is 4x-3y+2=0. The point of intersection is got by solving the two equations. We get x= 3/5 and y=-1/5. These are the coordinates of the point of intersection of the two lines.

From the equation
3x + 4y - 1 = 0
4y = -3x + 1
y = (-3/4)x + 1/4
By comparing with the equation of a straight line
y = mx + c
m = -3/4
For parallel
m2 = m1
m2 = -3/4
For perpendicular
m2 = -1/m1
m2 = -1/(-3/4)
m2 = 4/3
