MCQ
The angle between the lines $2x - y + 3 = 0$ and $x + 2y + 3 = 0$ is:
  • $90^\circ$
  • B
    $60^\circ$
  • C
    $45^\circ$
  • D
    $30^\circ$

Answer

Correct option: A.
$90^\circ$
Let $m_1$ and $m_2$ be the slope of the lines $2x - y + 3 = 0$ and $x + 2y + 3 = 0,$ respectively.
Let $\theta$ be the angle between them.
Here, $m_1= 2$ and $\text{m}_2=-\frac{1}{2}$
$\because\text{m}_1\text{m}_2=-1$
Therefore, the angle between the given lines is $90^\circ .$
