Find the angle between the lines x = a and by + c = 0.

Given:


x = a


by + c = 0


To find:


Angle between the lines x = a and by + c = 0.


Concept Used:


Angle between two lines.


Explanation:


The given lines can be written as


x = a … (1)


y = -cb … (2)


Hence, Lines (1) and (2) are parallel to the y-axis and x-axis, respectively. Thus, they intersect at right angle, i.e. at 90°.
