Come back to Straight Lines after a week. Use flashcards for quick recall and try past exam questions on this chapter.

What to Focus On

  • Distance formula is used to find the length of a segment between two points.
  • Midpoint divides a segment into two equal parts.
  • Section formula finds an internal division point in a given ratio.
  • Inclination is measured anticlockwise from the positive x-axis.
  • Slope means tan of inclination, except for a vertical line.
  • Slope of x-axis is 0 and slope of y-axis is undefined.
  • The angle formula gives the acute angle only.
  • If 1 + m1m2 = 0, the lines are perpendicular.
  • The obtuse angle is found by subtracting the acute angle from 180°.

Common Mistakes to Avoid

The slope of every vertical line is zero.

The formula m = (y2 - y1)/(x2 - x1) works even when the line is vertical.

Two non-vertical lines are perpendicular only when their slopes are equal and opposite.

Memory Tips

Slope as tan of inclination

Inclination range and special angles

Slope of x-axis and y-axis

Slope from two points
