=== === A vertical line is a line with an undefined slope. Note that this is different from an infinite slope. The slope of a vertical line is said to be undefined. It may be said to go "straight up and down"

A vertical line is drawn on a graph by plotting x = nwhere n equals any real number. The value of n is located on the x axis and then a line is drawn parallel to the yaxis through that x value. Note that the y axis itself is a vertical line. There are an infinite number of possible lines with an undefined slope, of course. Any number on the x axis can have a line drawn through it parallel to the y axis, and any one of those lines is said to be a vertical, and will have a slope that is undefined.

A simpler definition say a vertical a line is a line that goes up to down
