Find the equation of the straight line upon which the length of the perpendicular from the origin is 2 and the slope of this perpendicular is `5/(12)dot`

Explanation

Here, slope`=\frac{5}{12}`

`\implies \tan \alpha=\frac{5}{12}`

`\implies \sin\alpha=\frac{5}{13}`

`\implies \cos\alpha=\frac{12}{13}`

The equation of line in the normal form is `x\cos \alpha+y\sin \alpha=p`

Here, `p=2`

Therefore, required equation of line is,
` x xx\frac{12}{13}+y xx\frac{5}{13}=2`
