I have inserted a line into a power point slide using c# console application. The line inserted is slant. I have to rotate the line with some angle, so that line is straight. Do i have to use any namespace to achieve this.

the code i am writing is..

C#

public void AddLines(PowerPoint.Slide slide, float left, float top, float width, float height)
        {
            try
            {
                PowerPoint.Shape objAddLines = slide.Shapes.AddLine(left, top, width, height);
            }
            catch (Exception e)
            {
                Console.WriteLine(e.Message);
            }
        }

What I do when I don't know how to do something in any office program such as Word, Excel or PowerPoint is record a macro.

When the macro records you record the behavior that you want in your code, in your case rotate a line. Next, stop the macro from recording and look in the generated macro source file. This has helped me a lot of times.
