A. Point-Slope Form • P1(x1, y1) 1 (𝑥 𝑦 + 𝑥2 𝑦3 + 𝑥3 𝑦1 )
Given: m = slope and a point P1(x1,y1)
𝐴= [ 1 2 ]
d 𝐴𝑥1 + 𝐵𝑦1 + 𝐶 2 − (𝑦1 𝑥2 + 𝑦2 𝑥3 + 𝑦3 𝑥1 )
Then, 𝑦 − 𝑦1 = 𝑚(𝑥 − 𝑥1 ) 𝑑=

Then, 𝑦 = 𝑚𝑥 + 𝑏 positive; use – if the point is below the line provided 3 3
B is positive. L: 4x – 3y – 6 = 0
C. Two-Point Form Ex: L: 4x + 3y – 6 = 0 Point above → -
Given: P1(x1,y1) & P2(x2,y2) Point above → + Point below → +
