SUBJECT TEACHER'S
RECOMMENDATION

I would like to thank our subject teacher "Mr.


SD sir (mathematics)" for bringing up this topic
to our concern and motivating us for our project
work and I would also like to Thank Department
of Mathematics for assigning this project work.
It definitely was worth it making detailed
information about the assignes Topic "Straight
lines" which helped us to learn a lot of things
while doing researches and going through the
topic thoroughly.

 Introduction to line

In geometry, a line is an infinitely long object


with no width, depth, or curvature. Thus, lines
are one-dimensional objects, though they may
exist in two, three, or higher dimension spaces.

in analytic geometry, a line in the plane is often


defined as the set of points whose coordinates
satisfy a given linear equation, but in a more
abstract setting, such as incidence geometry, a
line may be an independent object, distinct from
the set of points which lie on it.
 Straight line

A straight line is an infinite length line that does not have


any curves on it. A straight line can be formed between
two points also but both the ends extend to infinity. A
straight line is a figure formed when two points A (x1, y1)
and B (x2, y2) are connected with the shortest distance
between them, and the line ends are extended to infinity.
In the image shown below, a straight line between two
points A and B is shown. A straight line AB is
represented by: ←→AB

While straight lines have no definite beginning or


end, they are represented in our day-to-day lives with
examples such as railway tracks or the freeway.
 Properties of a Straight Line

The properties of straight lines are written


below.
 A straight line has infinite length. We
can never calculate the distance between
the two extreme points of the line.

 A straight line has zero areas,


zero volume. But it has infinite length.

 A straight line is a one-dimensional


figure.

 An infinite number of lines can pass


through a single point, but there is only
one unique line that passes through two
points.
 General Equation of a Straight Line
The general equation of a straight line can
be given as ax + by + c = 0, where
 a, b, c are constants, and
 X, y is variables.
 The slope is -a/b
 Pair of lines
A straight line, often known as a line, is a one-
dimensional infinite geometry having no width but
just length. There are an endless number of points
in a straight line. A two-variable linear equation is
used to represent a straight line. A pair of straight
lines is represented by a second-degree equation in
two variables under specific conditions.
When the product of two linear equations in x and y indicates a straight
line is multiplied together, a pair of straight lines is generated.
Let, L1=0 and L2=0 be two straight line equations.
If P(x1, y1) is a point on L1, the equation L1=0 is satisfied. If P(x1,y1) is a
point on L2=0, then the equation is satisfied.
P(x1,y1) satisfies the equation L1L2=0 if it is located on L1 or L2.

L1L2=0 denotes the pair of straight lines L1=0 and L2=0, and L1L2=0
denotes the joint equation of L1=0 and L2=0.
We get an equation of the type
ax2+2hxy+by2+2gx+2fy+c=0 when we extend the above equation. This
is a non-homogeneous second degree equation in x and y.
If a, b,h are not all zero, the general equation of a second degree
homogeneous equation in x and y is ax2+2hxy+by2=0.

ax2+2hxy+by2=0, a pair of straight lines that pass through the origin

If a, b,h are not all zero, the general equation of a second-degree non-

homogeneous equation in x and y is ax2+2hxy+by2+2gx+2fy+c=0.


 Formulas for a Pair of Straight Lines

The following is a list of pair of straight lines


formulas:
1. Ax2+2hxy+by2=0 is a second-degree
homogeneous equation that depicts a pair of straight
lines flowing through the origin.

 Connection between straight lines and pair


of lines

The equations of two or more lines can be


expressed together by an equation of degree
higher than one. As we see that a linear equation
in x and y represents a straight line, the product
of two linear equations represent two straight
lines, that is a pair of straight lines.
 Some examples
 Important Notes on Straight Line

Here is a list of a few points that should be


remembered while studying about a straight line:
 A straight line cannot pass through three non-
collinear points.
 If two lines l and m coincide, they follow the
relation l = k × m, where k is a real number.
 The acute angle θ between two lines having
slopes m1 and m2, where m2 > m1 can be
calculated using the formula tanθ =(m2 - m1)/(1
+ m2 × m1).
