The Total solution for NCERT class 6-12
Reduce the equation √3x + y + 2 = 0 to:(i) slope – intercept form and find slope and y – intercept;(ii) Intercept form and find intercept on the axes(iii) The normal form and find p and α.
(i) Given:
√3x + y + 2 = 0
y = – √3x – 2
This is the slopeintercept form of the given line.
∴ The slope = – √3and y – intercept = -2
(ii) Given:
√3x + y = -2
Divide both sides by-2, we get
√3x/-2 + y/-2 = 1
∴ The intercept form ofthe given line. Here, x – intercept = – 2/√3 and y – intercept = -2
(iii) Given:
-√3x – y = 2
