PRECAL 1 Subject Orientation Candy Confessions blue Tell us your favorite movie red What is/are your Favorite hobby/hobbies? yellow Where is your favorite place on earth? purple What is your favorite food? orange What book did you read last? Wildcard Tell us anything about yourself What is your expectation in this subject? How do you see yourself in 5 years or 10 years? GEN Z POV/ INSIGHTS As the youth of this Generation: “Our worth, our individual value, cannot fixed at a certain number, because our worth was determined the moment our life was formed” 11 Definition Analytic geometry- deals with the solution of geometric problems by the use of algebraic methods and the interpretation of algebraic equations geometrically as lines, curves or surfaces. Rene Descartes “Father of Analytic Geometry” 12 Basic Concepts One of the basic concepts of analytic geometry is the representation of all real numbers by points on a directed line. Thereal numbers consist of the positive numbers, the negative numbers, and zero. 13 Basic Concepts Rectangular Coordinates We draw a horizontal line and a vertical line meeting at the origin O. 14 Basic Concepts A pair of numbers (x, y) in which the order of occurrence of the numbers is distinguished is an ordered pair of numbers. The x-coordinate, or abscissa, of a point P is the directed distance from the y-axis to the point. The y-coordinate, or ordinate, of a point P is the directed distance from the x-axis to the point. 15 Basic Concepts Distance Between Two Points The length of a horizontal line segment joining two points is the abscissa of the point on the right minus the abscissa of the point on the left. 16 Basic Concepts Distance Between Two Points The length of a vertical line segment joining two points is the ordinate of the upper point minus the ordinate of the lower point. 17 Basic Concepts Distance Between Two Points The length of a slant line segment joining two points is the square root of the sum of the squares of the difference of the abscissas and the difference of the ordinates. 18 DISTANCE FORMULA: d x 2 x1 2 y 2 y1 2 19 Example 1 (horizontal line) Find the distance between points P1 ( 4, 0) and P2 ( 16, 0). Example 2 (vertical line) Find the distance AB and BC if the points A, B and C line on the same vertical line. 20 Example 3 (slant line) Find the distance between points P1 ( 4, 1) and P2 ( 7, -3) The Distance Formula Example: Find the distance between points P1 ( 0, -8) and P2 ( 16, 7). Example: Draw the triangle having the vertices A(6, 2), B(2, -3), and C(-2, 2). Show that the triangle is isosceles. The Distance Formula The Distance Formula Three given points are collinear if; the sum of the two shortest distances is equal to the longest distance. 24 Distance Formula 1. Draw the triangle with the given vertices and show that the triangle is a right triangle. A(1, 3), B(10, 5), and C(2, 1) 25 Distance Formula 2. Determine whether the points A(3, 3), B(0, 1), and C(9, 7) lie on a straight line. 3. Find the diameter of a circle with center at (2,3) and passing through the point ( -3, 1) 26 Exercise 1. One end of a line segment is the point (0,4) and the abscissa of the other end is 6. If the length of the line is 10, find the ordinate of the other end. 2. Find the perimeter of a triangle whose vertices are (-1,-2), (-3,0) and (5,4). 3. Find the area of a triangle whose vertices are (2,3), (-1,0) and (2,-4). 4. Find the distance between two points: a. ( 0,-3) and ( 5, -15) b. (1/2, ¾) and ( -8/5, 4/7) 27 Exercise 5. Draw the triangle with the given vertices and show that the triangle is a right triangle. A(-1, 1), B(6, -2), and C(4, 3) 6. Determine if the points P(3,2), Q(4,6) and R(0,-8) are collinear or not. 28 Basic Concepts : Slope slope A builder refers to this as pitch of the roof 29 Basic Concepts : Slope slope Inclination of an airplane 30 Basic Concepts : Slope The slope m of a line passing through two given points P1 and P2 is equal to the difference of the ordinates divided by the difference of the abscissas taken in the same order; that is y 2 y1 m x 2 x1 31 Basic Concepts : Slope 32 Basic Concepts : Slope Zero Slope Undefined Slope y y m is undefined m=0 x x Line is horizontal. Line is vertical. 33 Basic Concepts : Slope Angle of inclination: The inclination of a line that intersects the x-axis is the smallest angle, greater than or equal to 0°, that the line makes with the positive direction of the x-axis. The inclination of a horizontal line is 0. The slope of a line is the tangent of the inclination. 34 Basic Concepts : Slope Inclination of Line, θ The inclination of the line, θ, is the smallest positive angle measured from the positive axis to the line. 35 Basic Concepts : Slope Inclination of Line, θ Positive Slope Negative Slope y y m>0 m
