Given:

x = a(a ≠ 0) 

Concept Used:

A diagram (such as a series of one or more points, lines, line segments, curves, or areas) that represents the variation of a variable in comparison with that of one or more other variables

Calculations:

The value of x = a, (i.e. the value of x is constant)

The value of y = any value

So the graph that is formed by these points will be a straight line that is parallel to the y-axis

Hence, The graph of equation x = a is a line which is parallel to the y-axis
