उत्तर
The normal form of a line is
x cos θ + y sin θ = p ... (1)
Let us try to write down the equation
\[\sqrt{3}x + y + 2 = 0\] in its normal form.
\[\text { Now, } \sqrt{3}x + y + 2 = 0\]
\[ \Rightarrow \sqrt{3}x + y = - 2\]
\[ \Rightarrow - \frac{\sqrt{3}}{2}x - \frac{y}{2} = 1 \left[\text { Dividing both sides by } - 2 \right]\]
\[ \Rightarrow \left( - \frac{\sqrt{3}}{2} \right)x + \left( - \frac{1}{2} \right)y = 1 . . . (2)\]
Comparing equations (1) and (2) we get,
\[\cos\theta = - \frac{\sqrt{3}}{2}, \text { and} p = 1\]
\[ \Rightarrow \theta = {210}^\circ = \frac{7\pi}{6}\text { and } p = 1\]
