Question

Find the equation of lines passing through (1, 2) and making angle 30° with y-axis.

Solution

Given that the line makes angle 30° with y-axis

∴ Angle made by the line with x-axis is 60°

∴ Slope of the line

m = tan 60°

⇒ m = `sqrt(3)`


So, the equation of the line passing through the point (1, 2)

And slope `sqrt(3)` is y – y1 = m(x – x1)

⇒ y – 2 = `sqrt(3)(x - 1)`

⇒ y – 2 = `sqrt(3)(x - 1)`

⇒ `y - sqrt(3)x + sqrt(3) - 2` = 0

Hence, the required equation of line is `y - sqrt(3)x + sqrt(3) - 2` = 0
