Question
Write an equation of a line that passes through the given line and is perpendicular to the given line.
Hint:
- Perpendicular lines are lines that intersect at a right angle
The correct answer is: y = -2x + 2.
- We have to write an equation of a line that passes through the given line and is perpendicular to the given line.
Step 1 of 1:
We have to find a line passes through a point (-2, 6) and perpendicular to a line y = 0.5x - 3
Since product of two perpendicular lines is equal to -1.
So,
m × 0.5 = -1
m = -2
Therefore the equation of the line will be
y - 6 = -2(x + 2)
y = -2x + 2.
m = -2
Therefore the equation of the line will be
y = -2x + 2.
