Detailed Solution
Suppose a line passing through (1, 2) makes an angle θ with x-axis. Then, its equation is x−1cosθ=y−2sinθThe coordinates of a point on this line at a distance 63=23 from (1, 2) are given by x−1cosθ=y−2sinθ=23 or, 1+23cosθ,2+23sinθThis point lies on x+y=4.∴ 1+23cosθ+2+23sinθ=4⇒ cosθ+sinθ=32⇒ sinθ+π4=32⇒θ+π4=π3,2π3⇒θ=π12 and 5π12
