Slope of the line joining the points (1,2) and (3,4)-

eginaligned &mathrmm_1=fracmathrmy_2-mathrmy_1mathrmx_2-mathrmx_1=frac4-23-1=frac22=1\ &	ext  Therefore, \ &mathbfm_mathbf1 mathbfm_mathbf2=-mathbf1\ &Rightarrow mathbfm_2=frac-1m_1=-1 endaligned

Also mid-point of the line joining the points (1,2) and (3,4)-
(mathrmh, mathrmk)=left(frac3+12, frac4+22
ight)=(2,3)
Equation of perependicular bisector
eginarrayl =mathbfy-mathbf3=-mathbf1(mathbfx-mathbf2) \ =mathbfy-mathbf3=mathbf2-mathbfx=mathbfx+mathbfy-mathbf5=mathbf0 endarray
