Question

Find the equation for the line that is perpendicular to the line with the equation y=3 passing through the point (-4,4)

Answer 1

Given:

The required line is perpendicular to y=3.

Passing point =(- 4, 4)

Any line perpendicular to y = A is given by:

`x=B`

Where B is the passing coordinate of line.

Now the required line passes through (-4,4) and perpendicular to y=3 is given by:

`x=-4`

The required equation of line is x= - 4
