Step 1
1 of 2We have to find perpendicular bisector, we will use point-slope form , where is a slope and on our bisector. First we know our bisector is perpendicular and that it is negative reciprocal of slope through points and . Slope of the line through this points is , thus . Also, our bisector is passing through midpoint of our segment , so now from point-slope form we have that equation of our bisector is
or in slope-intercept form .
