COORDINATE GEOMETRY – IMPORTANT NOTES

1. Coordinates
• A point is written as (x, y)
• x = horizontal distance, y = vertical distance

2. Distance Formula
AB = √[(x2 – x1)² + (y2 – y1)²]

3. Midpoint Formula
M = ((x1 + x2)/2, (y1 + y2)/2)

4. Section Formula (Internal)


P = ((mx2 + nx1)/(m+n), (my2 + ny1)/(m+n))

5. Slope
m = (y2 – y1) / (x2 – x1)
• Positive: rising line
• Negative: falling line
• Zero: horizontal
• Undefined: vertical

6. Equation of Line
• Slope-intercept: y = mx + c
• Point-slope: y – y1 = m(x – x1)
• Two-point: y – y1 = [(y2 – y1)/(x2 – x1)] (x – x1)

7. Parallel & Perpendicular


• Parallel: slopes equal
• Perpendicular: m1 × m2 = –1

8. Area of Triangle (Coordinates)


Area = 1/2 | x1(y2–y3) + x2(y3–y1) + x3(y1–y2) |

9. Special Results
• Points collinear → area = 0
• Right triangle → a² + b² = c²

10. Circle Equation


(x – h)² + (y – k)² = r²
