Question

Determine the equation of the straight line
whose inclination is 60° and which passes
through the point (3, 4)​

Answer 1

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Given,

Inclination of a straight line is 60o

So, the slope = tan 60o = √3 = m

And, the equation of line passes through the point (0, -3) = (x1, y1)

Hence, the equation of line is given by

y – y1 = m (x – x1)

y + 3 = √3 (x – 0)

y + 3 = √3x

√3x – y – 3 = 0

Thus, the line equation is √3x – y – 3 = 0
