Find the equation of a straight line which is parallel to y-axis, and is at a distance of b from y-axis.
Answer:
x = b
- If a line is parallel to the y-axis and is at a distance of b from the x-axis as shown in the figure below, we observe that the abscissa of all the points on the line is constant and equal to b.
- This means that the equation of this line should be x = b.
