Check the picture below.
well, we want only the equation of the diametrical line, now, the diameter can touch the chord at any several angles, as well at a right-angle.
bearing in mind that <u>perpendicular lines have negative reciprocal</u> slopes, hmm let's find firstly the slope of AB, and the negative reciprocal of that will be the slope of the diameter, that is passing through the midpoint of AB.

so, it passes through the midpoint of AB,
so, we're really looking for the equation of a line whose slope is 4/3 and runs through (3 , 5/2)

X= -4y let this be equation 1
x+5y=2 let this be equation 2
substitute equation 1 in 2
-4y + 5y = 2
y=2
substitute the value of y in equation 1
x= -4y
x= -4(2)
x= -8
So your goal is to set it equal to Y, so you have to start by subtracting k and you get t-k, then you have to get rid of the fraction by multiplying both sides by the denominator (n), so then you get n(t-k) and the only thing left is to divide by the e, and you get 4
