Find the Angle α\alpha Between Two Nonvertical Lines L1L _ { 1 }

Question 127

Multiple Choice

Find the angle α\alpha between two nonvertical lines L1L _ { 1 } and L2L _ { 2 } .The angle α\alpha satisfies the equation
tanα=m2m11+m2m1\tan \alpha = \left| \frac { m _ { 2 } - m _ { 1 } } { 1 + m _ { 2 } m _ { 1 } } \right|

Where m1m _ { 1 } and m2m _ { 2 } are slopes of L1L _ { 1 } and L2L _ { 2 } , respectively.
(Assume that m1m21m _ { 1 } m _ { 2 } \neq 1 .)

L1:2xy=8L _ { 1 } : 2 x - y = 8 L2:x5y=4L _ { 2 } : x - 5 y = - 4
