The tangent of angle between the lines whose intercepts on the axes are 4,−5 and 5,−4 respectively
Equation of the line having intercepts a,b is xa+yb=1, and its slope is m=−ba
Hence the slope of the line which makes intercepts 4,−5 is m1=−(-5)4=54, and the slope of the
line which makes intercepts 5,−4 is m2=−(-4)5=45
If θ be the acute angle between two lines having slopes m1 and m2 then tanθ=m1−m21+m1m2
Hence,
tanθ=54-451+1=940
Therefore, tanθ=0.23
