the line "L1" has the equation y=3x. the line "L2" is perpendicular to "L1" and passes through the point P(0,0). write an equation of "L2"

OpenStudy (anonymous):

product of slopes of perpendicular line is -1

OpenStudy (anonymous):

thanks

OpenStudy (anonymous):

So, slope of line L2 = -1/3

OpenStudy (anonymous):

and also L2 passes through origin so equation of L2 is y=-1/3x

OpenStudy (anonymous):

y=-(1/3)x
