the number of equilateral triangles with y 3 x 1 2 and y 3

The number of equilateral triangles with $$y = \sqrt 3 \left( {x - 1} \right) + 2$$ and $$y = - \sqrt 3 x$$ as two of its sides is :

A. 0

B. 1

C. 2

D. None of these

Answer : None of these

Solution :
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.
