Is X=7 an oblique Line?

Generally oblique is used to describe the relationship between 2 lines, but only 1 is given. Oblique means slanted to a degree other than a multiple of 90°, usually in reference to the other line.

x = 7 is a vertical line, and that is exactly 90°, -90°, or even 270° or -270° depending on how you look at it, so it is not oblique on its own.

Answer:

x = 7 is not an oblique line.

Step-by-step explanation:

x = 7 is the standard equation for a vertical line, x = a, with an undefined slope. Vertical lines do not have horizontal change. Hence, its line will not be oblique (or slanted).

The equations in slope-intercept form (y = mx + b), standard form (Ax + By = C), and point-slope form [y - y₁ = m(x - x₁)] will most likely represent an oblique line, as long as its slope (m) ≠ 0. A line with a zero slope is a horizontal line (which is also not an oblique line).

Therefore, x = 7 is not an oblique line, but rather a vertical line.
