Perpendicular lines have the negative reciprocal slope, so the slope of your new line will be -1/4 and the current equation will be as follows:
y = -1/4x + b
(where b is the y intercept)

to find b, plug in point A and you'll get:
2 = -1/4(16) + b
2 = -4 + b
6 = b

the equation will be:
y = -1/4x + 6

Basically, you need to calculate "x" correct?
The tangent of (52) = x / 20
1.2799 = x / 20
x = 1.2799 * 20
