Write an equation representing a pair of lines through the point `(a , b)` and parallel to the coordinate axes.

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

Equation of the pair of line through the point(a,b).
We know that Equation of coordinate axes are `=>x=0` and y=0
when, equation of lines passing through (a,b) and parellel to the coordinate axes are `x=a,y=b`
i.e ` x−a=0−−−`(1)
`y−b=0−−−`(2)
