In the present work, the classical laminar boundary layer equation of the flow away from the origin past a wedge with the no-slip boundary condition replaced by a nonlinear Navier boundary condition is considered. This boundary condition contains an arbitrary index parameter, denoted by n > 0, which appears in the differential equation to be solved. Predictor homotopy analysis method (PHAM) is applied to this problem and more, it is proved corresponding to the value n = 1/3, there exist four solutions. Furthermore, these solutions are approximated by analytical series solution using PHAM for further physical interpretations.
