Find the acute angle between the two given lines<br><br> y=-2x and y=x
Marina CMI [18]

Answer:

θ ≈ 71.6°

Step-by-step explanation:

The angle between two lines with slopes m₁ and m₂ is:

tan θ = | (m₂ − m₁) / (1 + m₁m₂) |

Here, m₁ = -2 and m₂ = 1.

tan θ = | (1 − (-2)) / (1 + (-2)(1)) |

tan θ = | 3 / -1 |

tan θ = 3

θ ≈ 71.6°
