Question

Help mee.

The line through the midpoint of and perpendicular to the segment joining points (1, 0) and (5, -2).

Answer 1

Indicate the equation of the given line in standard form.

Answer 2

===> standard form for straight line:
\[\color{Red}{y=mx+b~,~m=slope~,~b=y-intercept}\]

Answer 3

First Get the slope of line segment joining these points (1,0) and (5,-2):
Using : \[\Large \frac{y_{2}-y_{1}}{x_{2}-x_{1}}=m\]
Can you fill in the equation ?
