We are asked to find the equations of lines given their distance from the origin, $p$, and the angle, $w$, between the positive x-axis and the perpendicular line segment from the origin to the line. We are given the following problems: 1) Distance from the origin is 4 units and the angle is 60 degrees. 2) Distance from the origin is 6 units and the angle is $\frac{5\pi}{4}$. 3) $p = 2$ and $w = 30^{\circ}$. 4) $p = 5$ and $w = \frac{7\pi}{6}$.
