(a + b)*(c + d) = Which leads to: Solve for x:


𝒂∗𝒅=𝒃∗𝒄 y – b = a*x + b – b
y – b = a*x
a*c + a*d + b*c + b*d 𝒏 (y – b)/a = (a*x)/a

Discriminant: D = b2 – 4*a*c Distance between Two Points:


D > 0; real and distinct roots D = √( (x1 – x0)2 + (y1 – y0)2) Equation of a Line: y = m*x + b
D = 0; repeated rational root Midpoint: ( (x0 + x1)/2, (y0 + y1)/2 )
m = slope
D < 0; complex conjugate roots Slope: m = (y1 – y0)/(x1 – x0)
b = y-intercept (when x = 0)
