First, let's find the slope of the line from the points given.
m = (4 - - 2) / (3 - 1)
m = 6 / 2
m = 3
Secondly, we know that a line perpendicular to the original must have a slope that is the opposite reciprocal of the original. For the given points, the opposite reciprocal slope would be -1/3.
Now, we can put all of the equations below into slope intercept form and find the ones that have a slope of -1/3.
