Using the slope form of the line,
(y - 0)/(x - a) = (b - y)/(0 - x) ..........(Slope between P and A must be equal to the slope between B and P)
y/(x - a) = (b - y)/-x
(b - y)(x - a)/(-xy) = 1
(bx - ab - xy + ay)/(-xy) = 1
1 + ab/(xy) - b/y - a/x = 1
ab/(xy) = b/y + a/x
ab/(xy) = (bx + ay)/(xy)
x/a + y/b = 1
