The equation of a line whose perpendicular distance from the origin is...
If p isthe length of the normal from the origin to a line and ωis the angle made by the normal with the positive direction of thex-axis,then the equation of the line is given by xcosω +ysinω= p.
Here, p = 8 units and ω= 60°
Thus, therequired equation of the given line is
xcos 60° + y sin 60° = 8
x(1/2) + y(√3/2) = 8
x/2 + √3y/2 = 8
x + √3y = 16
