Study Notes

Coordinate Geometry Practice Test

The practice test consists of 30 questions covering various topics in coordinate geometry.

Midpoint of a Line Segment

The midpoint of a line segment between two points (x1, y1) and (x2, y2) is given by ((x1 + x2)/2, (y1 + y2)/2).

Distance between Two Points

The distance between two points (x1, y1) and (x2, y2) is given by √((x2 - x1)^2 + (y2 - y1)^2).

Gradient and Equations of Lines

The gradient of a line perpendicular to a line with equation y = mx + c is -1/m.
The equation of a line perpendicular to y = mx + c and passing through a point (x1, y1) is y - y1 = (-1/m)(x - x1).

Simultaneous Equations

Simultaneous equations can be solved using substitution or elimination methods.
To eliminate a variable, you can add or subtract the equations.

Applications of Coordinate Geometry

Coordinate geometry can be used to solve problems involving distance, midpoint, and gradient in real-world scenarios, such as football games and stationery shop costs.
The technique of solving simultaneous equations can be used to find unknown values in a system.
