Find the equations to the straight lines passing through the point (2, 3) and inclined at an angle of 450 to the lines 3x + y – 5 = 0.



Answer -

Given:

The equation passesthrough (2, 3) and make an angle of 450with the line 3x + y – 5= 0.

We know that theequations of two lines passing through a point x1,y1 and making anangle α with the given line y = mx + c are

Here,

Equation of the givenline is,

3x + y – 5 = 0

y = – 3x + 5

Comparing thisequation with y = mx + c we get, m = – 3

x1 =2, y1 = 3, α = 45, m = – 3.

So, the equations ofthe required lines are

x + 2y – 8 = 0 and 2x– y – 1 = 0

The equation of givenline is x + 2y – 8 = 0 and 2x – y – 1 = 0
