Answer:
y = 0 or y = √3x
Step-by-step explanation:
Hi,
Given equation of line is √3x + y = 1
Writing in slope-intercept form , we get
y = -√3x + 1
Hence, the slope of the line is -√3
We know that if Ф is the inclination of line with positive x -axis,
slope is given by tanФ,
so tanФ = -√3
⇒ Ф = - 60°
Now, given that line makes an angle of 60° with the given line,
hence its inclination would be either (Ф + 60) or (Ф - 60)
= -60 +60 or -60 - 60
= 0° or -120°
Hence the slope of the required line would be either tan0 = 0 or
tan(-120) = -√3
As , we know any equation of line passing through origin and
having slope 'm' will be of the form y = mx,
Hence the equation of the required line would be either
y = 0 or y = √3x
Hope, it helps !
