Passage

Suppose that

P_1

and

P_2

are two different points in a Cartesian coordinate system, with

P_1

located at

(3,-2)

and

P_2

(-1,5)

. Let

L_1

and

L_2

be lines passing through

P_1

and

P_2

respectively. Based on the above data, answer the given subquestions.

Question

If the

x

-intercept of the line

L_1

1

and the angle between

L_1

and

L_2

\pi/2

, then determine the coordinates of the point where

L_1

and

L_2

intersect.
