Answer:
Given lines
  • 3x + 4y - 1 = 0⠀⠀----[1]
  • 2x - 5y + 7 = 0 ⠀ ----[2]
  • 4x - 2y + 7 = 0⠀⠀----[3]

To find
  • Equation of line AB.

Solution
  • Let two points, and .

It is given that two lines i.e., 3x + 4y - 1 = 0 and 2x - 5y + 7 = 0 are intersecting each other.

⠀⠀❍ Let us find the intersecting point.

  • x = -1
  • y = 1

.

Now, let's find the slope of the third line.

Writing it in the form of

Therefore,

  • Slope of the line is 2.

We know that, product of slope of two lines that are perpendicular to each other is -1.

Hence,
  • The required equation of the line is .
