If we draw lines of `x = 2` and `y = 3` what kind of lines do we get?

The correct Answer is:
To solve the question of what kind of lines we get when we draw the lines \( x = 2 \) and \( y = 3 \), we can follow these steps: ### Step 1: Understanding the equation \( x = 2 \) The equation \( x = 2 \) represents a vertical line. This line is parallel to the y-axis and crosses the x-axis at the point (2, 0). ### Step 2: Understanding the equation \( y = 3 \) The equation \( y = 3 \) represents a horizontal line. This line is parallel to the x-axis and crosses the y-axis at the point (0, 3). ### Step 3: Drawing the lines - Draw the x-axis and y-axis on a graph. - For \( x = 2 \), draw a vertical line that passes through the point (2, 0). - For \( y = 3 \), draw a horizontal line that passes through the point (0, 3). ### Step 4: Analyzing the intersection The vertical line \( x = 2 \) and the horizontal line \( y = 3 \) will intersect at the point (2, 3). ### Step 5: Determining the relationship between the lines Since one line is vertical (parallel to the y-axis) and the other line is horizontal (parallel to the x-axis), these two lines are perpendicular to each other. ### Conclusion Thus, when we draw the lines \( x = 2 \) and \( y = 3 \), we get two intersecting lines that are perpendicular to each other. ---
