CARTESIAN COORDINATES AND LINEAR EQUATION

- Gradient
1. y = mx
m = gradient
2. y = mx + c
m = gradient
y = 3x + 4
m=3
3. ax + by + c = 0
m = -a/b
a. 2x + 3y + 6 = 0
m = -2/3
b. 3y = 2x + 10
2x -3y + 10 = 0
m = -a/b = -2/-3 = 2/3
4. Throught two point
a. (2,3) and (-6,7)
y 2− y 1 7−3 4
m= = = = -1/2 = -0.5
x 2−x 1 −6−2 −8

- Parallel/sejajar (m1 = m2)

- Perpindicular/tegak lurus = (m1. m2 = -1)

EQUATION

1. Through one point and gradient

Y – y1 = m (x – x1)
o Find the gradient through point A (2,3) with gradient is 4!
y – 3 = 4 (x – 2)
y – 3 = 4x -8
4x – 8 – y + 3 = 0
4x - y - 5 = 0
2. Through 2 point
y− y 1 x−x 1
=
y 2− y 1 x 2−x 1
o Find the gradient through point A (2,3) and point B (8,4) !
y−3 x−2
=
4−3 8−2
y−3 x−2
=
1 6
6 (y – 3) = 1 (x-2)
6y – 18 = x – 2
X – 6y -2 + 18 = 0
X – 6y – 16 = 0
