Write the equation of the line that is parallel to x-axis and passing

1.	Write the equation of the line that is parallel to x-axis and passing through the point (i) (0,3) (ii) (0,4) (iii) (2,-5) (iv) (-4,-3)
Answer» Slope of the line parallel to x – axis is 0 Eq of line parallel to x-axis and passing through (a, b) is y – b = 0 (i) (0, 3) ⇒ y – 3 = 0 (ii) (0, 4) ⇒ y – 4 = 0 (iii) (2, - 5) ⇒ y + 5 = 0 (iv) (-4, -3) ⇒ y + 3 = 0

Write the equation of the line that is parallel to x-axis and passing through the point (i) (0,3) (ii) (0,4) (iii) (2,-5) (iv) (-4,-3)

Answer»

Slope of the line parallel to x – axis is 0

Eq of line parallel to x-axis and passing through (a, b) is y – b = 0

(i) (0, 3)

⇒ y – 3 = 0

(ii) (0, 4)

⇒ y – 4 = 0

(iii) (2, - 5)

⇒ y + 5 = 0

(iv) (-4, -3)

⇒ y + 3 = 0
