\underline{\textbf{Given:}}

\textsf{Line is y=ax+b}

\underline{\textbf{To find:}}

\textsf{Normal equation of straight line  y=ax+b}

\underline{\textbf{Solution:}}

\mathsf{Consider,\;y=ax+b}

\textsf{Comparing this line with y=mx+c, we get}

\mathsf{Slope,\,m=a\;\;and\;\;y-intercept,\,c=b}

\textsf{Slope of normal to the given line}

\mathsf{=\dfrac{-1}{m}}

\mathsf{=\dfrac{-1}{a}}

\therefore\textsf{Equation of normal is}

\mathsf{y=m\,x+c}

\mathsf{y=\left(\dfrac{-1}{a}\right)x+b}

\mathsf{y=\dfrac{-x}{a}+b}

\mathsf{y=\dfrac{-x+ab}{a}}

\mathsf{ay=-x+ab}

\boxed{\mathsf{x+ay-ab=0}}
