Question

6. Obtain the equation of the line which is : (a) parallel to the X-axis and 3 units below it. (b) parallel to the Y-axis and 2 units to the left of it. (e) parallel to the X-axis and making an intercept of 5 on the Y-axis. (d) parallel to the Y-axis and making an intercept of 3 on the X-axis.​

Answer 1

SOLUTION

Use equation of line y = mx + c

• i) parallel to x axis and 3 unit below the x axis
• y = - 3

• ii) Similarly
• x = - 2

• iii) y = 5

• iv) x = 3
