The line 3x+2y−11=03x+2y-11=0 has slope −32-\tfrac32. tan⁡30°=13=∣m+321−32m∣\tan30°=\dfrac{1}{\sqrt3}=\left|\dfrac{m+\tfrac32}{1-\tfrac32m}\right|. Squaring: (1−1.5m)2=3(m+1.5)2⇒1−3m+2.25m2=3m2+9m+6.75⇒0.75m2+12m+5.75=0(1-1.5m)^2=3(m+1.5)^2 \Rightarrow 1-3m+2.25m^2 = 3m^2+9m+6.75 \Rightarrow 0.75m^2+12m+5.75=0; multiplying by 44: 3m2+48m+23=03m^2+48m+23=0. Reading this as $bm …
