Question 10.
Find the equation of the line which passes through (2, 3) and cuts equal intercepts on both axis.
Solution:
Equation of line AB

+ = 1
Since this line passes through the point (2, 3).
∴ 2 + 3 = a
⇒ a = 5
Thus x + y = 5

Question 12.
Find the equation of the lines which passes through point (- 3, – 5) and intercepts cut by line between both axis bisect this point.
Solution:
Point (- 3, – 5) lies on line PQ which bisects it. Thus intercepts of x and y-axis will be – 6 and – 10.

⇒ 10x + 6y + 60 = 0
⇒ 5x + 3y + 30 = 0

Question 13.
Find the equation of two lines which passes through point (4, – 3) and sum of intercepts cut by axis is 5 unit.
Solution:
Let equation of straight line in intercept form is as follows :
+ = 1
or + = 1
This line passes through point (4, – 3).
⇒ – = 1
⇒ 20 – 4a – 3a = 5a – a²
⇒ 20 – 7a – 5a + a² = 0
⇒ a² – 12a + 20 = 0
⇒ a² – 10a – 2a + 20 = 0
⇒ a(a – 10) -2(a – 10) = 0
⇒ (a – 2) (a – 10) = 0
When a – 2 = 0
Then a = 2

(ii) in -ve direction of axis
(iii) first intercept in +ve and second in -ve direction
Solution:
(i)

Equation of line
+ = 1
3x + 5y – 15 = 0

Equation of line
+ = 1
⇒ – 3x – 5y – 15 = 0
⇒ 3x + 5y + 15 = 0

Equation of line
+ = 1
⇒ – 3x + 5y + 15 = 0
⇒ 3x – 5y – 15 = 0

Question 16.
The perpendicular drawn from origin to a straight line makes an angle of 30° with .y-axis and its length is 2 units. Find the equation of this line. Solution:
According to question,

0 = 180° – 30°= 150°

Question 17.
Find the length of that part of line x sin a + y cos a = sin 2α which cuts axis at mid point.Also, find the coordinate of mid point of this part.
Solution :
x sin α + y cos α = sin 2α
⇒ x sin α + y cos α = 2 sin α cos α

Thus intercept of x – axis = 2 cos α and intercept aty-axis = 2 sin α and coordinates of point A and B are (2 cos α, 0) and (0, 2 sin α)

Thus, length of middle part cut of axis by given line is 2 unit and coordinates of mid point are (cos α, sin α).

Question 18.
Find the equation of straight line for which p = 3 and cos α = , where p is the length of perpendicular drawn from origin to the line and α is the angle formed by perpendicular with x-axis.
