Answer:
-1/3 or 3
Step-by-step explanation:
If θ is the angle between any two line and their slopes are m₁ and m₂, then
tanθ = | (m₁ - m₂)/(1 + m₁m₂) |
In the question, m₁ = 1/2 , θ = 45°
∴ tan45° = | (1/2 - m₂)/(1 + m₂/2) |
1 = ± (1/2 - m₂)/(1 + m₂/2)
1(1 + m₂/2) = ± (1/2 - m₂)
1 + m₂/2 = 1/2 - m₂ or 1 + m₂/2 = -1/2+m₂
3m₂/2 = -1/2 or 3/2 = m₂/2
m₂ = -1/3 or 3 = m₂
Hence, slope of the other line is -1/3 or 3

Answer:
- If the angle between two lines is 45 ° and the slope of one of the line is 1/2 find the slope of the other line.
- Find the slope of the other line.
The slope of the other line is - ⅓ or ± 3.

- Slope is the 'steepness' of the line, also commonly known as rise over run. We can calculate slope by dividing the change in the y-value between two points over the change in the x-value.
- The amount of rotation about the point of intersection of two planes (or lines) which is required to bring one in correspondence with the other is called an Angle.
Acute Angle:
- It lies between 0° to 90.
Obtuse Angle:
- It lies between 90° to 180°.
Right Angle:
- The angle which is exactly equal to 90°.
Straight Angle:
- The angle which is exactly equal to 180°.
Reflex Angle:
- The angle which is greater than 180° and less than 360°.
Full Rotation:
- The complete rotation of angle equal to 360°.
