Let the slope of the line passing through the given points be m.
m = 27 - ( - 12 ) 24 - 15 = 27 + 12 9 = 39 9 = 13 3
Let the slope of the line perpendicular to the line passing through the given points be m'.
Then m m = - 1 m = - 1 m = - 1 13 3
m = - 3 13
Hence, the slope of the required line is - 3 13
