25.
Let P(1, 0) and Q(2, 3) be the given points. Then, slope of line joining PQ,
If A divides PQ with ratio 1:n, co-ordinate of A is
So, slope of line perpendicular to line joining points P and Q
Hence, equation of line passing through point A and (perpendicular to line) joining points P and Q is given
