Find the x and y Intercepts pi/3
Problem
Solution
Identify the type of equation provided. The expression
x=π/3 represents a vertical line on the Cartesian plane.Find the x-intercept by identifying the point where the line crosses the x-axis. For a vertical line
x=k the x-intercept occurs at(k,0) Substitute the value
k=π/3 to find the x-intercept.
Find the y-intercept by determining if the line crosses the y-axis. A vertical line
x=k only has a y-intercept ifk=0 Sinceπ/3≠0 the line is parallel to the y-axis.Conclude that there is no y-intercept for this vertical line.
