- Selecting a line (or a segment) g and a point A creates a straight line through A perpendicular to line (or segment) g (see also PerpendicularLine command).
- Note: The line’s direction is equivalent to the perpendicular vector of g (see also PerpendicularVector command).

Following text is about a feature that is supported only in GeoGebra 5.0.
Note: From GeoGebra 5, this tool will work with 3D objects as well.
