Coordinate Geometry - Revision Notes

Coordinates on Graphs
• Vertical lines → same x-coordinate for all points.
• Horizontal lines → same y-coordinate for all points.

x = constant
y = constant

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

(x2, y2)

(x1, y1)

Distance Formula
Distance = √((x2 - x1)^2 + (y2 - y1)^2)
(x2, y2)

∆y

(x1, y1) ∆x

Equation of a Line
General form: y - y1 = m(x - x1)
Slope (m) = (y2 - y1) / (x2 - x1)
Special cases: Horizontal line → y = c, Vertical line → x = c

(x2, y2)

Slope m

(x1, y1)

Area of a Right Triangle


Area = 1/2 × base × height
Height

Base
