The correct Answer is:
To find the angle between the given pairs of lines, we can use the formula: \[ \tan \theta = \frac{|m_1 - m_2|}{1 + m_1 m_2} \] where \( m_1 \) and \( m_2 \) are the slopes of the two lines. ### (i) Lines: \( y = \sqrt{3}x + 1 \) and \( y = \frac{1}{\sqrt{3}}x + 2 \) 1. **Identify the slopes**: - For the first line, \( m_1 = \sqrt{3} \). - For the second line, \( m_2 = \frac{1}{\sqrt{3}} \). 2. **Calculate \( \tan \theta \)**: \[ \tan \theta = \frac{|\sqrt{3} - \frac{1}{\sqrt{3}}|}{1 + \sqrt{3} \cdot \frac{1}{\sqrt{3}}} \] 3. **Simplify the numerator**: - Convert \( \sqrt{3} \) to a common denominator: \[ \sqrt{3} = \frac{3}{\sqrt{3}} \] - Now, the numerator becomes: \[ |\frac{3}{\sqrt{3}} - \frac{1}{\sqrt{3}}| = |\frac{3 - 1}{\sqrt{3}}| = \frac{2}{\sqrt{3}} \] 4. **Simplify the denominator**: \[ 1 + \sqrt{3} \cdot \frac{1}{\sqrt{3}} = 1 + 1 = 2 \] 5. **Final calculation**: \[ \tan \theta = \frac{\frac{2}{\sqrt{3}}}{2} = \frac{1}{\sqrt{3}} \] 6. **Find \( \theta \)**: \[ \theta = 30^\circ \] ### (ii) Lines: \( y = x \) and \( y = 1 - x \) 1. **Identify the slopes**: - For the first line, \( m_1 = 1 \). - For the second line, \( m_2 = -1 \). 2. **Calculate \( \tan \theta \)**: \[ \tan \theta = \frac{|1 - (-1)|}{1 + 1 \cdot (-1)} \] 3. **Simplify the numerator**: \[ |1 + 1| = 2 \] 4. **Simplify the denominator**: \[ 1 - 1 = 0 \] 5. **Final calculation**: \[ \tan \theta = \frac{2}{0} \quad \text{(undefined)} \] 6. **Find \( \theta \)**: \[ \theta = 90^\circ \] ### (iii) Lines: \( 2x + 3y = 2 \) and \( 3x - 2y = 1 \) 1. **Convert to slope-intercept form**: - For \( 2x + 3y = 2 \): \[ 3y = -2x + 2 \implies y = -\frac{2}{3}x + \frac{2}{3} \quad (m_1 = -\frac{2}{3}) \] - For \( 3x - 2y = 1 \): \[ -2y = -3x + 1 \implies y = \frac{3}{2}x - \frac{1}{2} \quad (m_2 = \frac{3}{2}) \] 2. **Calculate \( \tan \theta \)**: \[ \tan \theta = \frac{|- \frac{2}{3} - \frac{3}{2}|}{1 + (-\frac{2}{3}) \cdot \frac{3}{2}} \] 3. **Simplify the numerator**: - Find a common denominator: \[ -\frac{2}{3} = -\frac{4}{6}, \quad \frac{3}{2} = \frac{9}{6} \] - The numerator becomes: \[ |-\frac{4}{6} - \frac{9}{6}| = |-\frac{13}{6}| = \frac{13}{6} \] 4. **Simplify the denominator**: \[ 1 + (-1) = 0 \] 5. **Final calculation**: \[ \tan \theta = \frac{\frac{13}{6}}{0} \quad \text{(undefined)} \] 6. **Find \( \theta \)**: \[ \theta = 90^\circ \] ### Summary of Angles - (i) \( 30^\circ \) - (ii) \( 90^\circ \) - (iii) \( 90^\circ \)
