DISTANCE FORMULA
DEFINITION FORMULA
The distance formula is used to find the
distance of two different points on a To find the distance between two points
cartesian plane. It is derived from the (x1 , y1) , (x2 , y2), use the formula
pythagoras theorem. d = √(x2 - x1)2 + (y2 - y1)2
EXAMPLE
Example:
1. Find the distance between each pair of points:
(3,11) & (6,15)
Solved Answer
distance of (3,11) and (6,15) = √(6 - 3)2 + (15 - 11)2
= √32 + 42
= √9 + 16
= √25

TYPES OF LINES
Parallel Lines
Perpendicular Lines
Parallel lines will always have the same
slope.
Slope of line A is 4.5, and A ll B, then line B
slope is 4.5
EXAMPLE
Perpendicular lines have slopes that are
Example: the negative reciprocal of each other.
1. Find the distance between each pair of points:
(3,11) & (6,15)
Slope of line A is-⅘ then the slope of
line B will be 5/4.
Solved Answer
distance of (3,11) and (6,15) = √(6 - 3)2 + (15 - 11)2
Point-gradient Form
The point-slope form, also known as the point-gradient form, is
an equation of a straight line expressed as y − y1 = m(x − x1),
01 where m represents the slope of the line, and (x1, y1) are the
coordinates of a given point on the line.
DEFINITION

Exam tips
Solving quadratic equations in exams can be challenging, but with the right strategies, you can improve your
performance. Here are some tips to help you approach quadratic equation problems:
1. Read the question carefully: Make sure you understand what the question is asking and identify the
key information provided.
2. Identify the type of quadratic equation: Determine whether the equation is in standard form, vertex
form, or factored form. This will help you choose the appropriate method for solving.
3. Use the appropriate method: Depending on the type of equation, choose the most efficient method
for solving. This may include factoring, completing the square, or using the quadratic formula.
4. Check your solutions: After solving the equation, always verify your answers by substituting them
back into the original equation. This will help you catch any er

1.Factorization method:
In the factorization method, you factorize the equation by finding 2 number that multiply to c and add to b.(x2 + 8x + 15)
→ x2 + 5x + 3x + 15 = x(x+5) + 3(x+5)
→ since *x+5 is a common factor, we can cancel one of them out, leaving us with
→ (x+3)(x+5) = 0
x2 + 8x + 15 = 0
There is another type of a quadratic equation. These equations have coefficients greater or less than 0, meaning they are
integers. If you want to solve these equations using the factorization method, you have find the product of ac, and use that
as the new c value.
