as

Example:

(1,2)
y2 − y1
The slope formula, m =
x2 − x1
−1 − 2 −3
m= = =1
− 2 −1 − 3
The slope, m is 1.
The equation formula, y = mx + c
y = 1x + c with (-2,-1) or -1 = 1(-2)+c
c=3
The equation is y = 1x + 3
m1 = m2 m1 x m2 = -1
Parallel Lines Perpendicular
Lines
Example:
Find the equations of the straight line that passes through (-3,7)
and is parallel with the line y = 3x – 5
The line is parallel with y = 3x - 5, so m1 =3
m2 is also 3 since parallel line has similar slope or m1 = m2 .
The equation formula, y = mx + c
y = 3x + c with (-3,7) or 7 = 3(-3)+c
c = 16
The equation is y = 3x + 16
Example:
Find the equations of the straight line that passes through (2,-8)
1
and is perpendicular with the line y = − x .

The line is perpendicular with y = − x , so m1 = −

The equation formula, y = mx + c
y = 3x + c with (2,-8) or -8 = 3(2)+c
c = - 14
The equation is y = 3x - 14

Determining Intercepts
Example:
Conics
The word conics originated from the word cone. Conic sections
are curves that results from an intersection of a plane and a
double cone. There are four conic sections to be learned in this
lecture; a circle, ellipse, parabola, and a hyperbola.
Circle
(x, y)
r
(h, k)
Example:
( x − 2) 2 + ( y +1) 2 = 4
h = 2, k = -1, r = 2
The center is (h, k) = (2, -1) and r = 2
Example:
Find the equation of a circle with radius 5 and center (-2, 3).
( x − [ − 2]) 2 + ( y − 3) 2 = 5 2
( x + 2) 2 + ( y − 3) 2 = 25

Example:
Find the focus and directrix of a parabola whose equation is y2 =
8x.
Compare y2 = 4px to y2 = 8x
4p = 8 or p = 2
The focus of the parabola of the form y2 = 4px is (p, 0) so the
focus is (2, 0).
The directrix of the parabola of the form y2 = 4px is x = -p so
the directrix is x = -2.

The general form of equation is + =1 .

From the vertices; -4 = -a and 4 = a. Substitute both values in
the equation;

From the foci, -3 = -c and 3 = c. Substitute a and c into the
formula b 2 = a 2 − c 2 to get the b value.
b 2 = 4 2 − 32 or b 2 =16 − 9 = 7
