Find the equation of the straight line that passes through the point `(3,4)` and is perpendicular to the line `3x+2y+5=0`

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The equation of a line perpendicular to `3x + 2y + 5 = 0 is 2x – 3y + λ = 0 ...........(i)`
This passes through the point (3, 4)
` ∴ 3 × 2 – 3 × 4 + λ = 0 `
`⇒ λ = 6 `
