Answer:

Write the new equation in slope-intercept form.  Replace the old slope with the new slope.  Replace the y-intercept's value with a variable (b).

Answer:

the perpendicular slope will be the opposite reciprocal of the original slope .

Step-by-step explanation:

example:  lets use the points (5,3) ( 10,7)

                 The slope is 5/4

so we need a line of    -4/5 (perpendicular) that passes through 5,3

Hope that helps
