Question

The hypotenuse of a right angled triangle has its ends at the points (1, 3) and (−4, 1). Find the equation of the legs (perpendicular sides) of the triangle.

Answer 1

what is the equation @shinalcantara

Answer 2

For case 1:
equations of lines a and b are x=1 and y=1 respectively
(x=1: in this case, x has only 1 value as y varies in value infinitely
y=1: y has only one value as x has infinite values)
For case 2:
equations of lines a and b are x=-4 and y=3 respectively
