8. The point \(( x , y , z )\) is rotated through \(60 ^ { \circ }\) anticlockwise around the \(z\)-axis. After rotation, the value of the \(x\)-coordinate is equal to the value of the \(y\)-coordinate.
Show that \(y = ( a + \sqrt { b } ) x\), where \(a\), \(b\) are integers whose values are to be determined.
