Ch 7 - 4

The general form of the equation
of a straight line
ax + by + c = 0
Ch 7 - 5


Gradient-intercept form of the equation of a straight line
y = mx + b
Ch 7 - 6


Point-gradient form of the equation of a straight line
Ch 7 - 7


Two lines with gradients m1 and m2 are parallel if
If lines are parallel then
m1 = m2
Ch 7 - 8


Two lines with gradients m1 and m2 are perpendicular if
Ch 7 - 9


The gradient of ax + by + c = 0 is
Ch 7 - 10

Find the equation of the line parallel to 3x + 4y - 2 = 0 and passing through
(1, -1)
Equation is 3x + 4y + k = 0. Substitute the point to find k (= 1) then substitute value for k.
3x + 4y + 1 = 0.
Ch 7 - 11

Find the equation of the line perpendicular to 3x + 4y - 2 = 0 and passing through (1, -1)
Equation is 4x - 3y + k = 0. Substitute the point to find k (= -7) then substitute value for k.
3x + 4y – 7 = 0.
Ch 7 - 12

Find the equation of the line parallel to y = 3x – 2 and passing through
(2, -2)
Equation is y = 3x + b.
Substitute the point to find k (= -8) then substitute value for k.
y = 3x – 8
[or use point gradient form]
Ch 7 - 13


Find the equation of the line perpendicular to y = 3x – 2 and passing through (2, -2)
Equation is y = -⅓x + b.
Substitute the point to find k (= -1⅔) then substitute value for k.
y = -⅓x – 1⅔
[or use point gradient form]

Ch 7 - 14


To show that three points are collinear (lie on the same straight line)

Find the gradient between any two pairs of points. If these two gradients are the same then the points are collinear
Ch 7 - 15


To show that three lines are concurrent (pass through the same point)
Find the point of intersection of two of the lines (by solving equations simultaneously) and check that this point lies on the third line.
