Key Formulas
Distance in the Coordinate Plane
Distance =
if you’re measuring
the distance between the points (x1, y1)
and (x2, y2).Distance in the Coordinate Space Distance
Distance =
if you’re measuring
the distance between the points (x1, y1, z1)
and (x2, y2, z2).Midpoint between Two Points
Midpoint = (
, ), where the endpoints of
a line segment are (x1, y1)
and (x2, y2).Point-Slope Form of the Equation of a Line
y – y1 = m(x – x1),
where m is the slope of the line, and (x1, y1)
is a point on the line.
Slope-Intercept Form of the Equation of a Line
y = mx + b, where m is
the slope of the line, and b is the y-intercept
of the line. Both m and b are
constants.
Slope of a Line
Slope =
, where two points
on the line are (x1, y1)
and (x2, y2).Standard Form of the Equation of a Circle
(x – h)2 + (y
– k)2 = r2,
where (h, k) is the center of
the circle, and r is the radius. When centered
at the origin, the equation simplifies to x2 +
y2 = r2.
Standard Form of the Equation of a Parabola
y = a(x – h)2 +
k, where a, h,
and k are constants.
