उत्तर

Equation of line AB,

`"x"/4 + "y"/6 = 1` or 3x + 2y = 12,

2y = −3x + 12

y = `(-3)/2 "x" + 12/2`

Slope of line AB = `(-3)/2`

AB ⊥ BC,

∴ Slope of BC = `2/3`

∵ The line intersects the y-axis, hence the point is B(0, 6).

∴ Equation of line BC

y – 6 = `2/3 ("x" - 0)`

or 3y – 18 = 2x

or 2x – 3y + 18 = 0
