If $\theta_1, \theta_2, \theta_3$ are respectively the angles by which the coordinate axes are to be rotated to eliminate the $xy$ term from the following equations,then the descending order of these angles is:
$A_1 = 3x^2 + 5xy + 3y^2 + 2x + 3y + 4 = 0$
$A_2 = 5x^2 + 2\sqrt{3}xy + 3y^2 + 6 = 0$
$A_3 = 4x^2 + \sqrt{3}xy + 5y^2 - 4 = 0$

The origin is translated to $(1,2)$. The point $(7,5)$ in the old system undergoes the following transformations successively.
$I$. Moves to the new point under the given translation of origin.
$II$. Translated through $2$ units along the negative direction of the new $X$-axis.
$III$. Rotated through an angle $\frac{\pi}{4}$ about the origin of the new system in the clockwise direction. The final position of the point $(7,5)$ is

Point $(-1, 2)$ is changed to $(a, b)$ when the origin is shifted to the point $(2, -1)$ by translation of axes. Point $(a, b)$ is changed to $(c, d)$ when the axes are rotated through an angle of $45^{\circ}$ about the new origin. Point $(c, d)$ is changed to $(e, f)$ when $(c, d)$ is reflected through the line $y = x$. Then $(e, f) =$

$A$ vector $\vec{a}$ has components $3p$ and $1$ with respect to a rectangular Cartesian system. This system is rotated through a certain angle about the origin in the counter-clockwise sense. If,with respect to the new system,$\vec{a}$ has components $p+1$ and $\sqrt{10}$,then a value of $p$ is equal to
