Answer:
4x - 3y = 0
Step-by-step explanation:
The angle between the radius and the tangent at P is right
The equation of a line in slope- intercept form is
y = mx + c ( m is the slope and c the y- intercept )
Rearrange 4y + 3x = 25 into this form
Subtract 3x from both sides
4y = - 3x + 25 ( divide all terms by 4 )
y = - [tex]\frac{3}{4}[/tex] x + [tex]\frac{25}{4}[/tex] ← in slope- intercept form
with slope m = - [tex]\frac{3}{4}[/tex]
Given a line with slope m then the slope of a line perpendicular to it is
[tex]m_{perpendicular}[/tex] = - [tex]\frac{1}{m}[/tex] = - [tex]\frac{1}{-\frac{3}{4} }[/tex] = [tex]\frac{4}{3}[/tex] , thus
y = [tex]\frac{4}{3}[/tex] x + c ← is the partial equation
To find c substitute P(3, 4) into the partial equation
4 = 4 + c ⇒ c = 4 - 4 = 0
y = [tex]\frac{4}{3}[/tex] x ← equation of radius in slope- intercept form
Multiply through by 3
3y = 4x ( subtract 3y from both sides )
4x - 3y = 0 ← equation of radius in standard form
