Given:
`3x-5y=3`
`3x+5y=12`
The formula to find the angle between two lines is
`tan(theta)=|(m_2-m_1)/(1+m_1_2)|`
Find the slope of line 1.
`3x-5y=3`
`-5y=-3x+3`
`y=3/5x-3/5`
The slope of line 1 is `m_1=3/5` .
Find the slope of line 2.
`3x+5y=12`
`5y=-3x+12`
`y=-3/5x+12/5`
` `The slope of line 2 is `m_2=-3/5.`
Plug in the slopes into the formula
`tan(theta)=|((m_2-m_1)/(1+m_1m_2))|`
`tan(theta)=|((-3/5)-(3/5))/(1+(3/5)(-3/5))|=15/8`
`theta=arctan(15/8)=61.9^@=1.0808` radians.
The angle between the two lines is 61.9 degrees or 1.0808 radians.
