The equation of line perpendicular to given line is:

$y = \frac{2}{3}x-1$

Step-by-step explanation:

Given equation is:

$3x+2y = -8$

First of all, we have to find the slope of the given line

So,

$3x+2y = -8\\2y = -3x-8\\$

Dividing both sides by 2

$\frac{2y}{2} = \frac{-3x-8}{2}\\y = \frac{-3x}{2} - \frac{8}{2}\\y =-\frac{3}{2}x-4$

As the equation is in slope-intercept form, the co-efficient of x will be the slope of the line

$m_1 = -\frac{3}{2}$

As we know that product of slopes of two perpendicular lines is -1

Let m-2 be the slope of line perpendicular to given line

$m_1.m_2 = -1\\-\frac{3}{2} . m_2 = -1\\m_2 = -1 * -\frac{2}{3}\\m_2 = \frac{2}{3}$

Slope-intercept form is:

$y = m_2x+b$

putting the value of the slope

$y = \frac{2}{3}x+b$

Putting the point (3,1) in the equation

$1 = \frac{2}{3}(3) +b\\1 = 2 + b\\b = 1-2\\b = -1$

Putting the value of b

$y = \frac{2}{3}x-1$

Hence,

The equation of line perpendicular to given line is:

$y = \frac{2}{3}x-1$

If you flipped the picture, it would be 60 degrees. But since its not flipped, it could possibly be 120 degrees since all sides are equal as the sides are parallel to each other.

Hope this helps.
