You need to remember the equation that helps you to find
the angle between the given lines and
, such
that:
represents the slope of the line
represents the slope of the line
Since the line l_1 passes through the points and
yields:
Since the line passes through the points
and
yields:
2/(-4) => m_2 = -1/2
You may substitute - for
and -
for
in equation of tangent
, such
that:
= (-5/2)/(5/2) = -1
You need to remember that the tangent
of an angle is negative if the angle is obtuse, hence or
.
Hence,
evaluating the angle between the lines l_1 and l_2 yields
.
