Find the equation of a straight line on ...

Find the equation of a straight line on which the perpendicular from the origin makes an angle of `30^0` with x-axis and which forms a triangle of area `50sqrt(3)` with the axes.

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

Let consider `AB` as given line and `OL=p` as the perpendicular drawn
And,`alpha=30^0` and equation of line AB is given by
`xcosalpha+ysinalpha=p`
`=>xcos30+ysin30=p`
`=>x/2+sqrt(3)/(2y) =2p`
`=>x+3y=2p............(1)` ...
