Q13 of 50 Page 4

Write the equation of line parallel to the y-axis and passing through (-2, 4).

The equation of line is given by: ax + by + c = 0


The equation of line parallel to the y-axis, x = a


Now, the line passes through (-2, 4), therefore,


-2 = a


Hence, the equation of line is x = -2.
