Find the equation of the line in the figure below.
Solution
line L1 passes through point (0,3) and (4,0)
slope of line L1, m1 = (0-3)/(4-0) = -3/4
now product of slopes of two perpandicular lines = -1
therefore m1m2 = -1
m2 = -1/(-3/4) = 4/3
also L2 passes through origin.
equation of line L2 is
y = m2x
y = (4/3)x
=> 3y = 4x
