Let us assume that vertical line means line perpendicular to X axis or parallel to Y axis.Its equation is given by ...X=K where K is a constant to be found .Since this vertical goes through the point (4,-5), it should satisfy the equation So substituting in X=K , we get 4=K...hence the equation of the vertical containing (4,-5) is X=4
