उत्तर

Slope of ST = `(5 - 2)/(2 - 1) = 3/1` = 3

Since the required line is perpendicular to ST, the slope of the line is `-1/3` and it is passing through A(–2, 3).

∴ Equation of the line in slope point form is y − y1 = m(x − x1)

∴ The equation of the required line is

y – 3 = `-1/3(x + 2)`

∴ 3(y – 3) = –(x + 2)

∴ 3y – 9 = – x – 2

∴ x + 3y = 7
