the equation of the line through the origin making an angle of 60 degree with the line X + Y root 3 + 3 root 3 is equal to zero
Answers
Answer:
x - √3 y = 0 ( 60° anticlockwise )
If you also need 60° clockwise, then also the line
x = 0 (i.e. the y-axis)

Step-by-step explanation:
Let θ be the angle that the line
x + √3 y + 3√3 = 0
makes with the x-axis ( -90° < θ ≤ 90° )
Then tan θ = - 1 / √3 => θ = -30°.
That is, the line goes down at an angle 30° from the x-axis.
A line that makes an angle of 60° (measured anticlockwise) with this line is then going to make an angle of
θ + 60° = -30° + 60° = 30°
with the x-axis.
tan 30° = 1 / √3 => equation is x - √3 y + c = 0.
line goes through the origin => c = 0
So the equation of the line is
x - √3 y = 0
-------------------------
If we also want the line that makes an angle 60° measured clockwise, then the new line will make an angle of θ - 60° = -30 - 60° = -90° with the x-axis. As the line passes through the origin, it is the y-axis. Equation is then:
x = 0
