<span>1) Perpendicular to </span>
In order for lines to be perpendicular, their slopes must be negative reciprocals.
Example of slopes with negative reciprocals: 5 and
First, rearrange the equation into slope y-intercept form:
The slope of the equation is: \frac{1}{5}
The negative reciprocal formula:
Solve for the negative reciprocal:
Divide both sides by
The slope of the new line is: -5
2) Passes through (-5,-2)
Create an equation with the slope discovered in slope y-intercept form.
Input the point the line passes through.
Solve for b (the y-intercept).
Multiply.
Add -25 to both sides.
The y-intercept is equal to -27
The Equation of the line is:
I hope this helped!
