Heres my code, but its not really doing anything, I dont see anything wrong with it:
Private Sub PG1(ByVal Target As Range)
If .Range("E50").Value = "Passed" Then
Rows("51").EntireRow.Hidden = True
End If
ElseIf Range("E50").Value = "Failed" Then
Rows("51").EntireRow.Hidden = True
End If
End Sub
My intention is that when that specific cell in the previous row is set to "Passed" from the dropdown, then the below row would appear, if its a 'Failed" then it'll be hidden instead.

It looks like your code has some typos in it. You want something that is like this:
Sub PG1()
If Range("E50").Value = "Passed" Then
Rows("51:51").EntireRow.Hidden = True
ElseIf Range("E50").Value = "Failed" Then
Rows("51:51").EntireRow.Hidden = False
End If
End Sub
To have the row hide/unhide update as you change the sheet, put it in a Worksheet_Change event:
Private Sub Worksheet_Change(ByVal Target As Range)
If Range("E50").Value = "Passed" Then
Rows("51:51").EntireRow.Hidden = True
ElseIf Range("E50").Value = "Failed" Then
Rows("51:51").EntireRow.Hidden = False
End If
End Sub
there was no typo. "rows(51)" is valid. but you don't need the "entirerow" modifier
rows(n).hidden=true ; where n is an valid row number
to hide multiple rows
range(rows(n1),rows(n2)).hidden=true ; will hide rows n1 though n2
Private Sub PG1()
Range("$E$51").EntireRow.Hidden = (Range("$E$50").Value = "Passed")
End Sub
