Study Notes
Parallel & Perpendicular Lines
- Determining Parallel/Perpendicular Lines: Parallel lines have the same slope. Perpendicular lines have slopes that are negative reciprocals of each other.
- Writing Parallel/Perpendicular Equations: Given a line, to find parallel equations maintain original slope but change y-intercept (b). For perpendicular, use the negative reciprocal of the slope and change the y-intercept (b).
- Determining Parallel/Perpendicular from Two Points: Calculate the slope of the line through the pairs of points. If slope values are the same, lines are parallel. If slopes are negative reciprocals of one another, lines are perpendicular.
Finding the Slope of a Line
- From a Graph: Count the rise over run between two points on the line. Negative rise or run indicates a negative slope.
- From Two Points: Use the formula m = (y₂ - y₁) / (x₂ - x₁). Carefully account for negative coordinates.
- From Slope-Intercept Form (y = mx + b): The slope is the coefficient 'm'.
Graphing Lines from Slope-Intercept Form
- Understanding Slope-Intercept Form: 'm' represents the slope and 'b' the y-intercept (where the line crosses the y-axis).
- Plotting: Plot the y-intercept and then use the slope to find additional points (rise/run). Start at the y-intercept and move according to the slope.
Converting Standard Form to Slope-Intercept Form
- Example: Convert 2x − 5y = 15. Solve for y.
Finding Slopes of Parallel and Perpendicular Lines
- Parallel: The slope of a line parallel to a given line has the same value as the given line's slope.
- Perpendicular: The slope of a line perpendicular to a given line is the negative reciprocal of the given line's slope.
Finding Equations of Lines
- Parallel and a Point: Find the slope of the parallel line. Use the point-slope form (y - y₁) = m(x - x₁) to write the equation, utilizing the given point.
- Perpendicular and a Point: Find the slope of the perpendicular line. Use the point-slope form to write the equation using the given point.
- Word Problems: Translate real-world scenarios into equations. Identify the initial value (y-intercept), rate of change(slope) from the information given to find the equation. Be careful with units.
- From Two Points: Use the two points to find the slope using the slope formula. Then use one of the points along with the found slope in point-slope format.
What is Slope?
- Definition: Slope measures the steepness of a line and describes how much the y-value changes for every unit of change in the x-value.
Solving Systems of Equations
- Graphing: Plot the lines and find the point of intersection.
- Substitution: Isolate one variable in one equation and substitute its expression into the other equation. Solve for one variable and substitute back.
- Elimination: Add or subtract equations to eliminate one variable. Multiply equations by constants if needed to make variable coefficients opposites.
- Word Problems: Represent the problem with two variables (x, y). Create two equations from the given information and solve using the methods of substitution or elimination.
Graphing Inequalities in Slope-Intercept Form
- Understanding Inequalities: Apply graphing procedures to inequalities as if they were equations, but consider the inequality's direction when shading the region. Use a solid line for "equal to" or "or equal to" and dashed for only "greater than" or "less than". Test a point to find the area to be shaded.
