Which of the equations given below have graphs parallel to the X-axis, and which ones have graphs parallel to the Y-axis?

i. x=3 ii. y – 2 = 0


iii. x + 6 = 0 iv. Y = -5

i. x = 3


x = a


The line is parallel to y-axis.


The figure is shown below:



ii. y-2 = 0


y = 2


y = a


The figure is shown below:



And the line is parallel to x-axis.


iii. x + 6 = 0


x = -6


The figure is shown below:



And the line is parallel to y-axis.


iv. y = -5


y = a


Then, the line is parallel to x-axis.


The figure is shown below:
