Write the equation of the line which passes through (5, –2) and is parallel to x = 4

anonymous · Answer

Can you do the same for this one..
Write the equation of the line which passes through (2, 1) and is perpendicular to x = –2.

anonymous · Answer

Think about it.  If the parallel line is always on 4 then it is a vertical line.  Since the vertical line must pass through 5,-2 then the line must be x=5  The above answer is wrong.

Perpendicular means they intersect at a 90 degree angle.  Therefore the next line should be perfectly horizontal.  y=1 works for the second.
