Y-axis and line x = – 4 are parallel lines. What is the distance between them?

Answer»

Equation of Y-axis is x = 0. 

Equation of the line parallel to the Y-axis is x = – 4. … [Given] 

∴ Distance between the Y-axis and the line x = – 4 is 0 – (- 4) … [0 > -4] 

= 0 + 4 = 4 units 

∴ The distance between the Y-axis and the line x = – 4 is 4 units. 

[Note: The question is modified as X-axis cannot be parallel to the line x = – 4.]
