  1. (i) Here, θ = 45o

    So, the slope of the line = tan θ = tan 45o = 1

    (ii) Equation of the line through P and Q is

    y – 3 = 1(x – 5)

    x – y – 2 = 0

    (iii) Let the co-ordinates of Q be (0, y)

    Then, m = y2 – y1/ x2 – x1

    1 = (3 – y)/ (5 – 0)

    5 = 3 – y

    y = 3 – 5 = -2

    Thus, co-ordinates of Q are (0, -2).
