Let AD be internal angle bisector of ∠BAC. Drop perpendicular from B on AD and produce it to meet AC at B'.
Clearly, , so B' is image of B in line AD.
As slope of AD is – 3, so slope of line BB'
∴ Equation of BB' in parametric form is
∴ Co-ordinates of B' are
Clearly, equation of AC is y = 2x ...(1)
Also, equation of AD is 3x + y = 5 (given) ...(2)
∴ On solving (1) and (2), we get A (1, 2)
So, clearly ΔABC is right angled at A. So, by using sine law, we get
