Explanation:

Given

Equation of line is
y=2x

Equation of line with slope m and intercept c on Y-axis is


y=mx+c

Comparing the given line with slope-intercept form


\Rightarrow m=2\ \text{and}\ c=0

The slope is also equal to
\tan \theta


\Rightarrow \tan \theta =2\\\Rightarrow \theta =63.43^(\circ)

To sketch the equation of
y=2x

  • Make a line that passes through the origin at an angle of
    63.43^(\circ) with the x-axis.
