Question:

A straight line is inclined to the axes of x and z at angels 45° and 60° respectively, then the inclination of the line to the y-axis is

Options:

30°

45°

60°

90°

Correct Answer:

60°

Explanation:

A straight line is inclined to the axes of x and z at an angle 45° and 60°

l2 + m2 + n2 = 1

$\Rightarrow m^2=\frac{1}{4}$

$\Rightarrow m=\frac{1}{2}$

⇒ angle made by 60°
