Question

How to find equation of a line that is perpendicular to another given equation?

Answer 1

Convert the given equation of line to the form

y = mx + c

Here, m is the slope of the line....

If two lines are perpendicular, M1 * M2 = -1

You will get the slope of the 2nd line...

Also, a point through which 2nd line passed will be given

Put the value of x and y in slope intercept form to find the intercept....

Then,

Form the equation in slope - intercept form by the values of m and c...
