Determine the equation of the straight line that passes through 0 and which is perpendicular to the line with the equation, y = 2x.
Solution
The line y=2x has a gradient 2.
Therefore, the required line has a gradient -1/2
(Using the fact that the product of the gradients of perpendicular lines = - 1)
The equation of the
the required line
line is
(y-0)/(x-0) = -1/2. 2y= -x
Someone please explain-
Therefore, the required line y = 2x has gradient -1/2
How did it reach to this conclusion?ā
