Me! i need it now, you! the equation of line qr is x + 2y = 2. what is the equation of a line perpendicular to line qr in slope intercept form that contains point (5, 6)?

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation of the line in Slope-Intercept form is:

Where "m" is the slope of the line and "b" is the y-intercept.

Solve for "y" to know the equation of the given line QR in Slope-Intercept form:

You can identify that the slope of this line is:

Since the slope of perpendicular lines are negative recirprocals, we know that the slope of the other line perpendical to the line QR is:

Finally, we need to substitute the slope and the  coordinates of the point (5, 6) into and solve for "b":

Then the equation of this line is:

180-142=38 for the acute angle next to the entry

90+38=128

180-128=52

a=52
