Formulas and Key Relations

Core idea

AB = \sqrt{(x_2-x_1)^2+(y_2-y_1)^2} = \sqrt{(x_1-x_2)^2+(y_1-y_2)^2}

Points on axes

Point on x-axis = (x, 0)

Point on y-axis = (0, y)

Typical problem types

2PA = PB

PA = PB = PC = Circumradius

Collinearity, Triangle Properties, and Special Figures

For points A(1,-1), B(6,4), and C(4,2), BC + AC = AB, so the points are collinear.

Distance formula

AB = sqrt((x2-x1)^2+(y2-y1)^2) = sqrt((x1-x2)^2+(y1-y2)^2)
