If line  x-4y = 6 is perpendicular bisector of line segment AB, equation of line segment AB is of the form 4x+y = k,
where k is a constant to be determined.
 
since line 4x+y = k is passing through B(1,3),   we have  4(1) + 3 = k = 7
 
Hence eqn. of line segment AB is 4x+y = 7
 
Point of intersection of x-4y = 6 and 4x+y = 7 is obtained by solving the equations of lines.
 
we get point of intersection as (2, -1) .
 
Since this point of intersection is midpoint of line segment AB, we get coordinate of A as (3, -5)
