उत्तर

Let m be the slope of the line whose equation is to be found out which is perpendicular to the line x + y + 7 = 0.

The slope of the given line y = (– 1)x – 7 is – 1.

Therefore, using the condition of perpendicularity of lines

We have m × (– 1) = – 1 or m = 1 (Why?)

Hence, the required equation of the line is y – 1

= (1)(x – 2) or y – 1

= x – 2x – y – 1

= 0.
