The correct Answer is:
To solve the problem step by step, we will follow the reasoning provided in the video transcript. ### Step 1: Identify the Given Lines The two adjacent sides of the parallelogram are given by the equations: 1. \( y = 0 \) (which is the x-axis) 2. \( y = \sqrt{3}(x - 1) \) The equation of one diagonal is given as: \[ \sqrt{3}y = x + 1 \] ### Step 2: Rewrite the Diagonal Equation We can rewrite the diagonal equation in slope-intercept form: \[ y = \frac{1}{\sqrt{3}}x + \frac{1}{\sqrt{3}} \] ### Step 3: Determine the Slopes of the Lines - The slope of the line \( y = 0 \) is \( 0 \). - The slope of the line \( y = \sqrt{3}(x - 1) \) can be identified as \( \sqrt{3} \). - The slope of the diagonal \( \sqrt{3}y = x + 1 \) is \( \frac{1}{\sqrt{3}} \). ### Step 4: Use the Properties of the Parallelogram In a parallelogram, opposite sides are parallel, and the diagonals bisect each other. The angles formed at the intersection of the diagonals can be used to find the slope of the other diagonal. ### Step 5: Determine the Slope of the Other Diagonal Using the properties of angles: - The angle between the x-axis and the line \( y = \sqrt{3}(x - 1) \) is \( 60^\circ \) (since \( \tan(60^\circ) = \sqrt{3} \)). - The angle between the diagonal \( \sqrt{3}y = x + 1 \) and the x-axis is \( 30^\circ \) (since \( \tan(30^\circ) = \frac{1}{\sqrt{3}} \)). - The other diagonal will form an angle of \( 120^\circ \) with the x-axis. The slope of the line at \( 120^\circ \) is: \[ \tan(120^\circ) = -\sqrt{3} \] ### Step 6: Write the Equation of the Other Diagonal We know the slope of the other diagonal is \( -\sqrt{3} \). The equation of a line in slope-intercept form is: \[ y = mx + c \] Substituting the slope: \[ y = -\sqrt{3}x + c \] ### Step 7: Find the y-intercept (c) The other diagonal passes through the point \( (1, 0) \) (the intersection of the two adjacent sides). Substituting this point into the equation: \[ 0 = -\sqrt{3}(1) + c \] \[ c = \sqrt{3} \] ### Step 8: Final Equation of the Other Diagonal Substituting \( c \) back into the equation: \[ y = -\sqrt{3}x + \sqrt{3} \] This can be rewritten as: \[ y = -\sqrt{3}(x - 1) \] ### Conclusion The equation of the other diagonal is: \[ y = -\sqrt{3}(x - 1) \]
