उत्तर

Given that: OM = 4 units

∠BAX = 120°

∴ ∠BAO = 180° – 120° or ∠MAO = 60°

∠MOA + MAO = 90°    ......[∵ OM ⊥ AB]

θ + 60° = 90°

∴ θ = 30°

So, equation of AB in its normal form

x cos θ + y sin θ = p

⇒ x cos 30° + y sin 30° = 4

⇒ `x xx sqrt(3)/4 + y xx 1/2` = 4

⇒ `sqrt(3)x + y` = 8

Hence, the required equation is `sqrt(3)x + y` = 8
