What to Focus On

  • Distance on a number line is the difference between coordinates.
  • The distance formula in the plane comes from a right triangle.
  • The sign of subtraction does not matter after squaring.

  • Section formula gives coordinates of a point dividing a segment in a ratio.
  • Midpoint formula is obtained by putting m = n.
  • The same idea works on a number line and in the plane.

  • Centroid is the point where the medians meet.
  • Centroid divides a median in the ratio 2:1.
  • First find the midpoint of BC, then apply the section formula on AD.

Common Mistakes to Avoid

The distance formula changes if the order of the points changes, so AB and BA may give different answers.

The slope of the Y-axis is zero, just like the slope of the X-axis.

Any line with positive slope must be slanting downwards from left to right.

Memory Tips

Distance between two points on a number line

Distance formula in the XY plane

Symmetry of the distance formula

Distance from origin
