ii) Find the image of the point (3,8) with respect to the given line.
i) We have; x + 3>’-7 = 0
$$y=-\frac{1}{3} x+\frac{7}{3}$$
Hence the slope = – $$\frac { 1 }{ 3 }$$

ii) The equation of the perpendicular to the given and passing through (3,8) is
(y – 8) = 3(x – 3)
=>y – 8 = 3x – 9
=> 3x – y = 1
Solving
=> 3x – y = 1 and x + 3y = 7
we get the coordinate of D, which is the midpoint of the points (3,8) and (x,y).
3x – y = 1
3x + 9y = 21
– 10y = – 20
=> y – 2;
x + 3y = 7
=> x = – 3 + 7 = 1
Hence midpoint is (1,2)
Therefore the coordinate of the image is
$$\left(\frac{x+3}{2}, \frac{y+8}{2}\right)=(1,2)$$
=>x + 3 = 2
