We know that angle between the lines is
tanθ = m1 + m2 √1 + m1m2
Here, Equation of line is y – x – 7 = 0
⇒ m1 = 1
similarly,m2 = 1 √3
Now,
tanθ = (2 - √3)
θ = tan–1(2 - √3)Correct Option: B

When a line cuts an intercept of a and b x-axis. Its equation will be
x + y a b
⇒ 3x + 2y – 5 = 0
⇒ 3x + 2y = 5
Dividing by 5 on both sides, we get3 x + 2 y = 1 5 5 ⇒ x + y = 1 (Desired Result) 5 5 2 2 Correct Option: A

Distance between two parallel lines 15x + 8y – 34 = 0 and 15x + 8y + 31 = 0 be d
⇒ d = 15x + 8y - 34 √15² + 8²
We know that from second equation 15x + 8y = –31⇒ d = -31 - 34 √225 + 64 = -65 √289 = -65 17 d = 65 units 17 Correct Option: D

Let the ratio be k : 1
Using internal section formula2 = 4 × k + 1 × 1 k + 1
⇒ 2(k + 1) = 4k + 1
2k + 2 = 4k + 1
–2k = –1k = 1 2
and0 = 6 × k + 1 × 2 k + 1
0 (k + 1) = 6k + 2
6k = –2k = - 1 3
The value of k is not negative.
∴ Ratio will be 1 : 2Correct Option: A
