Equation of Straight Lines Passing Through a Given Point and Making a given Angle with a Given Line

The equation of the straight lines which pass through a given point (x1 , y1) and make an angle α with the given straight line y = mx + c are

y-y_{1}=\tan (\theta \pm \alpha)\left(x-x_{1}\right)

Where, m = tan ?

\text{Angle with y-axis in clockwise direction is }\frac{\pi}{3}\\ \text{So angle with x-axis in anti-clockwise direction is }\frac{\pi}{6}\\ \text{Equation of line }\\ y-4=\tan{\frac{\pi}{6}}(x-3)\\ y-4=\frac{1}{\sqrt{3}}(x-3)\\ x-3-\sqrt{3}y+4\sqrt{3}=0
