Graphing calculator art help

Hi, i've been playing around with my TI-84 Plus CE and i was wondering if there was any way to plot a finite line, say from (1,1) to (1,5). That would be a great help with making certain shapes and graphing art

Hi;

What does the manual say?

hi ShizamedX

Welcome to the forum.

The manual only gives two options:  enter an equation in the form Y = and enter coordinates and let the machine produce a regression line.  So it looks like Texas haven't included a finite line option.

You can do it with Geogebra.
