Find the equation of the line that is perpendicular to the line y = 4 and passes through the point (−2, 1).

Respuesta :

The line y = 4 is a horizontal line. A perpendicular line will be a vertical line of the form ...

... x = constant

In order for that line to go through a point with an x-value of -2, the constant must be -2.

The desired equation is ...

... x = -2
