  1. The angle between the graph of the linear equation 239x – 239y + 5 = 0 and the x – axis is

    1. 60°
    2. 30°
    3. 45°
Correct Option: D

Putting y = 0 in the equation 239x – 239y + 5 = 0

⇒ x =
- 5
239

∴ Co-ordinates of A =
- 5
, 0
239

Again putting x = 0 in the equation 239x – 239y + 5 = 0, – 239y = – 5
⇒ y =
5
239

∴ Co-ordinates of B = 0 ,
5
239


∴ OA = OB =
5
239

∴ ∠OAB = ∠OBA = 45°
because ∠AOB = 90°
