उत्तर

Given lines are `- sqrt(3) |x|` = 2

⇒ `y - sqrt(3)x` = 2, if x ≥ 0   .....(i)

And `y + sqrt(3)x` = 2, if x < 0   ......(ii)

Slope of equation (i) is tan θ = `sqrt(3)`

∴ θ = 60°

Slope of equation (ii) is tan q  `- sqrt(3)`

∴ θ = 120°

Solving equation (i) and equation (ii) we get

`y - sqrt(3) = 2`
`y + sqrt(3)x = 2`
             2y = 4

⇒ y = 2

Putting the value of y is eq. (i) we get

x = 0

∴ Point of intersection of line (i) and (ii) is Q(0, 2)

∴ QO = 2

In ΔPEQ,

cos 30° = `"PQ"/"QE"`

`sqrt(3)/2 = "PQ"/5`

∴ PQ = `(5sqrt(3))/2`

∴ OP = OQ + PQ

= `2 + (5sqrt(3))/2`

Hence, the coordinates of the foot of perpendicular = `(0, 2 + (5sqrt(3))/02)`.
