Answer:
D) y = -2
The equation of the perpendicular line to the given line is y = -2
Step-by-step explanation:
Explanation:-
Given point (-3,-2)
In graph the equation of line x = 8 ( parallel to y- axis )
1 x + o y - 8 =0
The equation of the perpendicular line to the given line
b x - a y + k =0
o x - 1 y + k =0 ...(i)
The equation (i) is Paases through the point ( -3,-2)
0 ( -3) -1(-2) + k =0
2 + k =0
k = -2
∴The equation of the perpendicular line to the given line is
put k = -2 in equation (i)
o x - 1 y + k =0
- y +(-2) =0
- y = 2
y = -2
Final answer:-
∴The equation of the perpendicular line to the given line is y =-2
