You can use the direction vector as the coefficients of x and y for a line through (0, 0) perpendicular to that direction: x + y = 0. (A common factor of 4 can be removed from the coefficients.)
Translating the line up 2 and right 9, so it goes through the given point, we get ...
... (x -9) +(y -2) = 0
or
... x + y = 11
