I would plot the points first.
OpenStudy (freckles):
this will give you sorta an idea of where the third point could be

From my drawing and if you did a drawing it might look like the 90 angle happens at the (4,y) point
so it looks like you might want to think about comparing slopes for the lines that are perpendicular

so is it A, B, C, or D
OpenStudy (freckles):
try drawing it
OpenStudy (freckles):
your perpendicular lines are a horizontal verus a vertical
it really is easy to tell from just drawing it
OpenStudy (freckles):
can plot the 3 points?
OpenStudy (freckles):
