We have to find the vertical and horizontal lines that passes through the point (3,6).

A vertical line will be defined as x = constant. If it passes trough a point (x,1,y1), the line will be defined as a x=x1, so the point (x1,y1) belongs to the line.

The same goes for horizontal lines, but in this case the line is defined as y = constant.

For a point (x1,y1), the horizontal line that pass through the point will be y = y1.

Then, for point (x,y)=(3,6), the vertical and horizontal lines as:

x=3 and y=6.

Answer:

Vertical line: x = 3

Horizontal line: y = 6.
