Point -Slope form
y-y,= m(x-x,)

-> y-y,=mx-mx,

y-mx=y,-mx,

y-mx,-y,+mx,=0

with respect to Ax+By+C=0 ,

-y,+mx,=c ,

y,-mx,=-c

My question is how did professor say m=-A/B & c=-C/B

Hello Suhad,

I've attached a PDF document containing the explanation for your question from on L3.1, based on my understanding.

Hope it helps.

Thanks!
