Find the equation of a line which is equidistant from the lines x = - 2 and x = 6.

For the equation of line equidistant from both lines, we will find point through which line passes and is equidistant from both line.

As any point lying on x = - 2 line is ( - 2, 0) and on x = 6 is (6, 0), so mid - point is



(x, y) = (2,0)



So, equation of line is x = 2.
