    Study Notes

    Situation of Lines

    • An equation of a line can be determined if either two points on the line are known or a point on the line and the slope are provided.

    Standard Form Equations of Lines

    • Line through points A(4, 1) and B(5, 2): x - y = 3
    • Line through points R(3, 3) and S(-6, -6): x - y = 0
    • Line through points B(0, 0) and C(4, -4): x + y = 0
    • Line through points P(6, 2) and Q(8, -4): 3x + y = 20
    • Line through points M(0, 6) and N(6, 0): x + y = 6
    • Line through points E(-2, 2) and F(5, 1): x + 7y = 12
    • Line through points G(4, 6) and H(1, 5): x - 3y = -14
    • Line through points S(1/2, 1) and T(1/2, 4): x = 1/2
    • Line through points L(5, 0) and M(0, 5): x + y = 5
    • Line through points X(0, 6) and Y(5, 6): y = 6

    Lines with Given Points and Slopes

    • Point A(5, 5) with slope m = 3: 3x - y = 10
    • Point B(6, 2) with slope m = 1/2: x + 2y = 10
    • Point C(0, 4) with slope m = 0: y = 4 (horizontal line)
    • Point D(5, -2) with slope m = 2/5: 2x - 5y = 20
    • Point E(3, 5) with slope m = undefined: x = 3 (vertical line)

    Specific Line Requirements

    • Line through point (2, -1) parallel to slope 3/4: 3x - 4y = 10
    • Line through point (-3, 4) perpendicular to another slope: 5x + 2y = -7
    • Line with midpoint between points (2, -3) and (-6, 5): 9x - 7y = -25
    • Line through the midpoint, perpendicular to points (1, 0) and (5, -2): 2x - y = 7
    • Line through midpoints of triangle ABC (A(-5, 5), B(1, 1), C(3, 4)): x + 8y = 22
    • Line containing the hypotenuse of triangle ABC: x + 8y = 35
    • Line containing the longer diagonal of quadrilateral with vertices A(2, 2), B(-2, -2), C(1, -1), D(6, 4): 3x - 4y = 2
    • Line containing the median of trapezoid with vertices R(-1, 5), S(1, 8), T(7, -2), U(2, 0): 10x + 6y = 39
    • Line containing the altitude to the hypotenuse of triangle P(-1, 1), Q(3, 5), R(5, -5): x - 5y = -6
    • Equations for diagonals of square with vertices A(-3, 3), B(3, 3), C(3, -3), D(-3, -3): x +/- y = 0 (representing both diagonals)
