Discovering a line that is perpendicular to a specified line necessitates understanding the slope of the initial line. The slope of a line that stands at a right angle to this line will be the negative reciprocal of the original slope. Consequently, by utilizing the point-slope form equation, the equation which represents the perpendicular line can be determined.
