Care to share a screenshot so people can get an idea what you're talking about? What Lines tab? What ribbon? It must be a context ribbon, so what is the context that shows the ribbon? – teylyn – 2017-08-16T00:23:39.920

There's a layout ribbon in Power View, but it does not have an Analysis group. Please explain your context. – teylyn – 2017-08-16T00:32:50.630

I think you must mean Excel 2010, not 2013. In Excel 2010, with a chart selected, there is a Layout ribbon in the chart tools, which has an Analysis group.

The Lines tool is only available when the selected chart is a line chart. Adding drop lines to column charts does not make sense, so it is not available for column charts.
