Find the value of x so that the inclination of the line joining the points (x,-3) and (2,5) is `135^(@)` |
Answer» Let A(x,-3) and B(2,5) be the given points. Then slope of AB=`(5-(-3))/(2-x)=(8)/((2-x))` But slope of AB`=tan135^(@)=tan(180^(@)-45^(@))=-tan45^(@)=-1` `therefore (8)/((2-x))=-1 Leftrightarrow x-2=8 Leftrightarrow x=10` Hence, x=10 |
