Enter given data in the input box shown below.Then select Calculate.
Point 1 ( x 1 , y1 )
Point 2 ( x 2 , y2 )
Point 1 ( x 1 , y1 )
Point 2 ( x 2 , y2 )
Distance, d =
ANSWER, x y + = 0 ; written in general form of the equation of a line and in its simpliest form.
ANSWER, y = x + ; written in standard form, also known as slope-intercept form.
Formula Recall
y = mx + b ; Equation of a line in slope form ---- Equation 1
mx - y + b = 0; re-writing equation 1 in the general form Ax + By + C = 0 --Equation 2
slope, m =
slope , m = (y2 - y1)/ (x2 - x1) -- Equation 3
slope , m = (y2 - y1)/ (x2 - x1) -- Equation 3
using point (x2,y2) and slope
m,
substitutes its values in Equation 1
substitutes its values in Equation 1
= * + b ; slope form ---- Equation 1
b =
