The perpendicular bisector of the segment joining (0, 0) and (4, 6) is
A2x - 3y + 5 = 0
B3x + 2y - 13 = 0
C2x + 3y - 13 = 0
D3x - 2y = 0
Answer & Solution
Correct answer: C. 2x + 3y - 13 = 0
The midpoint is (2, 3) and the segment slope 3/2 gives a perpendicular slope -2/3, so y - 3 = -(2/3)(x - 2).
