The equation of the line passing through \( (-3, 5) \) and perpendicular to the line through the points \( (1, 0) \) and \( (-4, 1) \) is:
Show Hint
A line perpendicular to \( Ax + By + C = 0 \) always takes the form \( Bx - Ay + K = 0 \).

- \( 5x + y + 10 = 0 \)
- \( 5x - y + 20 = 0 \)
- \( 5x - y - 10 = 0 \)
- \( 5x + y + 20 = 0 \)
- \( 5y - x - 10 = 0 \)
Show Solution
The Correct Option is B
