Let's write the equation of the line y=ax+b. Then a1=1/atan(theta1), a2=1/atan(theta2), b1=rho1 and b2=rho2 (where theta1,rho1 and theta2,rho2 are the parameters of line1 and line2).

The intersection of line1 and line2 will be: x=(b2-b1)/(a1-a2) and y=(a1b2-a2b1)/(a1-a2)

Let's write the equation of the line y=ax+b. Then a1=1/atan(theta1), a2=1/atan(theta2), b1=rho1 and b2=rho2 (where theta1,rho1 and theta2,rho2 are the parameters of line1 and line2).

The intersection of line1 and line2 will be: x=(b2-b1)/(a1-a2) and y=(a1b2-a2b1)/(a1-a2).
