Answer

The equation of line x = 2.

Step by step explanation

First we have to find the slope from the given two points.

(2, 1) and (2, -2)

Here x1 =2, y1 = 1, x2 =2 and y2 = -2

Slope formula =
(y2 - y1)/(x2 - x1)

= (-2 - 1) /(2 - 2)

= -3/0

Slope(m) = 0

Here the value of x coordinates are the same and slope = 0, therefore, it is vertical line.

Hence the equation x = 2.

Thank you.
