2. Find the equation of a line parallel to x – 2y + 8 = 0 and passing through the point (1, 2).
EQUATION OF LINE CLASS 10 ICSE NOTES

Thus, the required equation of line is x – 2y + 3 = 0.

3. The equation of a line is y = 3x – 5. Write down the slope of this line and the intercept made by its on the Y-axis. Hence or otherwise, write down the equation of a line, which is parallel to the line and which passes through the point(0, 5)

Sol. Given, line y = 3x – 5                                                                        ……….(i)

 Slope = 3

For y-intercept, put x = 0 in Eq. (i), we get

                               y = – 5

The slope of the line parallel to the given line will be 3 ad passes through the point

(0, 5).

   Equation of the line will be given by
