Q.

The coordinate axes are rotated about the origin O in the counter - clock wise direction through an angle 60o. If p and q are the intercepts made on the new axes by a straight line whose equation referred to the original axes is x+y=1 then 1p2+1q2=

Detailed Solution

θ=60°=Angle of rotation of axes original equation; x+y1=0(1)

Given p,qare intercepts made by transformed equation of line(1)

1p2+1q2=?

sinθ=sin60°=32;cos60°=cosθ=12

We know that x=XcosθYsinθX3Y2

y=Xsinθ+Ycosθy=3X+Y2

Substituting x,y values in eqn(1)  and simplifying

We get, X(12+32)+Y(32+12)=1

 X-intercept =p=23+1;

Y-intercept =q=23+1

Now 1p2+1q2=(3+1)24+(13)24=2(3+1)4=2
