Let \(P \equiv(-3,0), Q \equiv(0,0)\) and \(R \equiv(3,3 \sqrt{3})\) be three points. Then the equation of the bisector of the angle \(\mathrm{PQR}\) is
- A \(\frac{\sqrt{3}}{2} x+y=0\)
- B \(x+\sqrt{3} y=0\)
- C \(\sqrt{3} x+y=0\)
- D \(x+\frac{\sqrt{3}}{2} y=0\)
Answer & Solution
Correct Answer
(C) \(\sqrt{3} x+y=0\)
Step-by-step Solution
Detailed explanation

Slope of \(\mathrm{QR}=\frac{3 \sqrt{3}-0}{3-0}=\sqrt{3}\) i.e., \(\theta=60^{\circ}\) Clearly, \(\angle \mathrm{PQR}=120^{\circ}\) \(\mathrm{OQ}\) is the angle bisector of the angle PQR, so line OQ makes \(120^{\circ}\) with the positive direction of \(\mathrm{X}\)-axis.
Therefore, equation of the bisector of \(\angle \mathrm{PQR}\) is \(y=\tan 120^{\circ} x \Rightarrow y=-\sqrt{3} x \Rightarrow \sqrt{3} x+y=0\)
