The sides given are $$y = \sqrt 3 \left( {x - 1} \right) + 2$$ and $$y = - \sqrt 3 x.$$ Lines are at an angle $${60^ \circ }$$ to each other.
Now any line parallel to obtuse angle bisector will make equilateral triangle with these lines as its two sides.
Therefore, infinitely many lines.

The equation of the straight line which passes through the point $$\left( { - 4,\,3} \right)$$ such that the portion of the line between the axes is divided internally by the point in the ratio $$5 : 3$$ is :
Let the line cuts the axes at points $$A\left( {a,\,0} \right)$$ and $$B\left( {0,\,b} \right).$$ Now, given that $$\left( { - 4,\,3} \right)$$ divides $$AB$$ in the ratio $$5 : 3.$$ Then, $$ - 4 = \frac{{3a}}{8}$$ and $$3 = \frac{{5b}}{8}.$$
Therefore, $$a = \frac{{ - 32}}{3}$$ and $$b = \frac{{24}}{5}.$$ Then using the intercept form $$\frac{x}{a} + \frac{y}{b} = 1,$$ the equation of line is
$$\eqalign{
& - \frac{{3x}}{{32}} + \frac{{5y}}{{24}} = 1 \cr
& {\text{or }}9x - 20y + 96 = 0 \cr} $$

Locus of centroid of the triangle whose vertices are $$\left( {a\,\cos \,t,\,a\,\sin \,t} \right),\,\left( {b\,\sin \,t,\, - b\,\cos \,t} \right)$$ and (1, 0), where $$t$$ is a parameter, is-
144.
For $$a > b > c > 0,$$ the distance between $$\left( {1,\,1} \right)$$ and the point of intersection of the lines $$ax + by + c = 0$$ and $$bx + ay + c = 0$$ is less than $$2\sqrt 2 .$$ Then :

Two points $$P\left( {a,\,0} \right)$$ and $$Q\left( { - a,\,0} \right)$$ are given. $$R$$ is a variable point on one side of the line $$PQ$$ such that $$\angle RPQ - \angle RQP$$ is $$2\alpha .$$ Then, the locus of $$R$$ is :
Let $$R\left( {h,\,k} \right)$$ be the variable point. Then,
$$\eqalign{
& \angle RPQ = \theta {\text{ and }}\angle RQP = \phi ,\,{\text{so that }}\theta - \phi = 2\alpha \cr
& {\text{Let, }}RM \bot PQ,{\text{ so that}} \cr
& RM = k,\,MP = a - h{\text{ and }}MQ = a + h \cr
& {\text{Then, }}\tan \,\theta = \frac{{RM}}{{MP}} = \frac{k}{{a - h}}, \cr
& \tan \,\phi = \frac{{RM}}{{MQ}} = \frac{k}{{a + h}} \cr
& {\text{Therefore, from }}2\alpha = \theta - \phi ,\,{\text{we have}} \cr
& \tan \,2\alpha = \tan \left( {\theta - \phi } \right) = \frac{{\tan \,\theta - \tan \,\phi }}{{1 + \tan \,\theta \,\tan \,\phi }} = \frac{{k\left( {a + h} \right) - k\left( {a - h} \right)}}{{{a^2} - {h^2} + {k^2}}} \cr
& \Rightarrow {a^2} - {h^2} + {k^2} - 2hk\,\cot \,2\alpha = 0 \cr} $$
Therefore, the locus of $$R\left( {h,\,k} \right)$$ is $${x^2} - {y^2} + 2xy\,\cot \,2\alpha - {a^2} = 0$$
Hence, (A) is the correct answer.

If the equation of the locus of a point equidistant from the point $$\left( {{a_1},\,{b_1}} \right)$$ and $$\left( {{a_2},\,{b_2}} \right)$$ is $$\left( {{a_1} - \,{b_2}} \right)x + \left( {{a_1} - \,{b_2}} \right)y + c = 0,$$ then the value of $$'c\,'$$ is-
A
$$\sqrt {{a_1}^2 + {b_1}^2 - {a_2}^2 - {b_2}^2} $$
B
$$\frac{1}{2}\left( {{a_2}^2 + {b_2}^2 - {a_1}^2 - {b_1}^2} \right)$$
C
$${a_1}^2 - {a_2}^2 + {b_1}^2 - {b_2}^2$$
D
$$\frac{1}{2}\left( {{a_1}^2 + {a_2}^2 + {b_1}^2 + {b_2}^2} \right)$$
Let the lines be $$y = {m_1}x$$ and $$y = {m_2}x$$ then
$$\eqalign{
& {m_1} + {m_2} = - \frac{{2c}}{7}{\text{ and }}{m_1}{m_2} = - \frac{1}{7} \cr
& {\text{Given }}{m_1} + {m_2} = 4\,{m_1}{m_2} \cr
& \Rightarrow \frac{{2c}}{7} = - \frac{4}{7}\,\,\,\, \Rightarrow c = 2 \cr} $$

The number of points, having both co-ordinates as integers, that lie in the interior of the triangle with vertices (0, 0), (0, 41) and (41, 0) is :
Total number of integral points inside the square $$OABC\,\, = 40 \times 40 = 1600$$
