To solve the problem step by step, we need to find the angle \( \theta \) given that a line with an initial angle \( \theta \) is rotated by \( 45^\circ \) and its slope becomes \( 3 \). ### Step 1: Define the initial slope Let the initial slope of the line be \( m_1 = \tan(\theta) \). **Hint**: Remember that the slope of a line is defined as the tangent of the angle it makes with the positive x-axis. ### Step 2: Define the new slope after rotation ...
