Detailed Solution

The equation of a line parallel to x-axis is y=k.

Solving this equation with y=x, we get x=k2.

Thus, the line y=k intersect with y=x at k2, k.

It is given that the line y=k intersects the curve y=x at an angle

or n/4.This means that the slope of the tangent to y=x at

k2, k is tan(±π/4)=±1.

dydxk2, k=±112xk2, k=±1k=±12

Hence, the required lines are y=±12
