Given
`0.05x-0.03y=0.21`
`0.07x+0.02y=0.16`
Find the slope for line 1.
`0.05x-0.03y=0.21`
` ` `5x-3y=21`
`-3y=-5x+21`
`y=5/3x-7`
The slope of line 1 is 5/3.
Find the slope of line 2.
`0.07x+0.02y=0.16`
`7x+2y=16`
`2y=-7x+16`
`y=-7/2x+8`
The slope for line 2 is -7/2.
Find the angle between the two lines by using the formula
`tan(theta)=|(m_2-m_1)/(1+m_1m_2)|`
`tan(theta)=|[(-7/2)-(5/3)]/[1+(5/3)(-7/2)]|`
`tan(theta)=(-31/6)/(-29/6)=31/29`
`theta=arctan(31/29)=46.9^@=0.8187` radians.
The angle between the given lines is 46.9 degrees or 0.8187 radians.
