Math Problem Statement

Duota tiesė y = x + sqrt(3)/3. Raskite šios tiesės kampą su Ox ašimi. Pasirinkite teisingą atsakymą: a) 0°, b) pi/6, c) pi/2, d) teisingo atsakymo nėra, e) pi/4, f) pi/3.

Solution

The given equation is y=x+33y = x + \frac{\sqrt{3}}{3}, and you are asked to find the angle that this line makes with the OxOx axis (the x-axis).

Step-by-step solution:

  1. General form of the line equation: The general form of a line is y=mx+by = mx + b, where mm is the slope of the line.

  2. Extract the slope: In this case, m=1m = 1, since the equation can be rewritten as y=1x+33y = 1 \cdot x + \frac{\sqrt{3}}{3}.

  3. Relation between slope and angle: The angle θ\theta that the line makes with the x-axis is related to the slope by the formula: tan(θ)=m\tan(\theta) = m So in this case: tan(θ)=1\tan(\theta) = 1

  4. Find the angle θ\theta: To find the angle, take the inverse tangent (arctangent) of both sides: θ=tan1(1)=π4\theta = \tan^{-1}(1) = \frac{\pi}{4}

Thus, the correct answer is e. π4\frac{\pi}{4}.


Would you like further details on this? Here are some additional questions to expand your understanding:

  1. How do you convert between degrees and radians?
  2. What is the meaning of the slope mm in a linear equation?
  3. How do we derive the formula tan(θ)=m\tan(\theta) = m for the slope?
  4. What does the y-intercept 33\frac{\sqrt{3}}{3} represent geometrically?
  5. How would the angle change if the slope mm was greater or less than 1?

Tip: Always remember that the slope determines the steepness and direction of a line, and its relationship to the angle with the x-axis can be crucial in many geometric problems!
