The equation of the line that passes through the points (2,1) and (5,-8) is
y = -3x + 7


solve for "a", once you get "a", plug it back into either equation to get "b"
Perpendicular lines have slopes that are negative reciprocals of each other, so the equation of the line in point-slope form is:

Rewriting this in standard form,

Answer:
d1=-1/2,d2=1/2
