³ Distance Formula
Let A( x1 , y1 ) and B( x2 , y2 ) be two points in a plane
B( x2 , y2 )
and d be a distance between A and B then
A ( x1 , y1 )
d = ( x2 - x1 ) 2 + ( y2 - y1 ) 2
or d = ( x1 - x2 ) 2 + ( y1 - y2 ) 2 O (0,0)
³ Ratio Formula
Let A( x1 , y1 ) and B( x2 , y2 ) be two points in a plane. The coordinates of the point
C dividing the line segment AB in the ratio
k1 : k2 are
k2
æ k1 x2 + k2 x1 k1 y2 + k2 y1 ö k1
ç , ÷ B( x2 , y2 )
è 1 2k + k k1 + k2 ø C
A ( x1 , y1 )
If C be the midpoint of AB i.e. k1 : k2 = 1:1
then coordinate of C becomes O (0,0)

³ Intersection of Median
Let A ( x1 , y1 ) , B ( x2 , y2 ) and C ( x3 , y3 ) are vertices of triangle.
Intersection of median is called centroid of triangle and can be determined as
æ x1 + x2 + x3 y1 + y2 + y3 ö

³ Rotation of Axes
Let ( x, y) be the coordinates of point P in xy-coordinate system. If the axes are
rotated through at angle of q and ( X , Y ) are coordinate of P in new XY-coordinate
system then
X = x cosq + y sin q
Y = y cosq - x sin q

³ Inclination of a Line:
The angle a (0o £ a < 180o ) measure anti-
clockwise from positive x - axis to the straight line B( x2 , y2 )
l is called inclination of a line l .
A ( x1 ,y1)
³ Slope or Gradient of Line a
The slope m of the line l is defined by:
m = tan a
If A( x1 , y1 ) and B( x2 , y2 ) be any two
distinct points on the line l then
y -y y - y2
m= 2 1 = 1
x2 - x1 x1 - x2
See proof on book at page: 191
³ Note: l is horizontal, iff m = 0 (Q a = 0 )
o
³ Theorem
The two lines l1 and l2 with respective slopes m1 and m2 are
(i) Parallel iff m1 = m2
1
(ii) Perpendicular iff m1m2 = -1 or m1 = -
m2
(with m1 and m2 non-zero)
