Write the inclination of a line which is :
(i) parallel to x-axis.
(ii) perpendicular to x-axis.
(iii) parallel to y-axis.
(iv) perpendicular to y-axis.
Answer
(i) A line parallel to the x-axis has an inclination of 0°, as it does not make an angle with the x-axis.
Hence, the inclination of the line = 0°.
(ii) A line perpendicular to the x-axis is parallel to the y-axis and makes a 90° angle with the x-axis.
Hence, the inclination of the line = 90°.
(iii) A line parallel to the y-axis is perpendicular to the x-axis, so its inclination is 90°.
Hence, the inclination of the line = 90°.
(iv) A line perpendicular to the y-axis is parallel to the x-axis, so its inclination is 0°.
Hence, the inclination of the line = 0°.
