The acute angle between intersecting lines that do not cross at right angles is the same as the angle determined by vectors norm

al to the lines or by the vectors parallel to the lines. Also, note that the vector ai + bj is perpendicular to the line ax + by = c Find the acute angles between the lines: x + √3y = 1 and (1 - √3)x + (1 + √3)y = 8 Thank you!

Answer:

45^{\circ}

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given that two lines equation

x+\sqrt 3y=1...(1)

(1-\sqrt 3)y+(1+\sqrt 3)y=8

Compare with the equation of line

ax+by+c=0

a_1=1,b_1=\sqrt 3

a_2=(1-\sqrt 3),b_2=(1+\sqrt 3)

The angle between two lines =Angle between two vectors

The angle between two vector

a_1i+b_1j and

a_2i+b_2j

is given by

cos\theta=\frac{a_1a_2+b_1b_2}{\sqrt{a^2_1+b^2_1}\sqrt{a^2_2+b^2_2}}

Using the formula

Therefore, the angle between two lines

cos\theta=\frac{1(1-\sqrt 3)+\sqrt 3(1+\sqrt 3)}{\sqrt{(1)+(\sqrt 3)^2}\times \sqrt{(1-\sqrt 3)^2+(1+\sqrt 3)^2}}

cos\theta=\frac{1-\sqrt 3+\sqrt 3+3}{\sqrt{1+3}\times\sqrt{1+3-2\sqrt 3+1+3+2\sqrt 3}}

cos\theta=\frac{4}{2\times\sqrt 8}=\frac{2}{2\sqrt 2}

cos\theta=\frac{1}{\sqrt 2}

cos\theta=cos45^{\circ}

By using cos45^{\circ}=\frac{1}{\sqrt 2}

\theta=45^{\circ}

Hence, the angle between two lines =45 degree

viva [34]

Answer:

scale factor = \frac{1}{3}

Step-by-step explanation:

Compare the ratio of corresponding sides, image to original.

AB = 6 units and A'B' = 2 units, thus

scale factor = \frac{A'B'}{AB} = \frac{2}{6} = \frac{1}{3}
