Question

What is the procedure for finding perpendicular equation?

Answer 1

Explain the procedure for finding perpendicular equations.

We know that the equation of line is $y=mx+b$, where $m$ is the slope of the line.

If the product of the slopes of the line is $-1$ then they are said to be perpendicular.

Hence, the required procedure is in the equation of the given line, swap the coefficients of $x$ and $y$, change the sign of either $x$ or $y$, and replace the constant term with a new constant $k$. The relationship between the $x$-coordinate and the $y$-coordinate of any point on the line is the equation of a line. The equation for a straight line with slope $m$ is $y=mx+b$. If two line equations meet at right angles, they are perpendicular. If the product of two lines' slopes is $-1$, they are said to be perpendicular.
