Coordinate Geometry and Lines

  • Analysis of Segment AB with Endpoints A(−5,4)A(-5, 4) and B(3,−6)B(3, -6):     - Finding the Perpendicular Bisector:         - The perpendicular bisector of a segment passes through its midpoint and has a slope that is the negative reciprocal of the segment's slope.         - Step 1: Find the Midpoint (MM): M=(−5+32,4+(−6)2)=(−22,−22)=(−1,−1)M = \left(\frac{-5+3}{2}, \frac{4+(-6)}{2}\right) = \left(\frac{-2}{2}, \frac{-2}{2}\right) = (-1, -1).         - Step 2: Find the Slope (mm) of AB: m=−6−43−(−5)=−108=−54m = \frac{-6-4}{3-(-5)} = \frac{-10}{8} = -\frac{5}{4}.         - Step 3: Find the Perpendicular Slope (m⊥m_{\perp}): Since the product of perpendicular slopes is −1-1, m⊥=45m_{\perp} = \frac{4}{5}.         - Step 4: Slope-Intercept Equation (y=mx+by = mx + b): Use the midpoint (−1,−1)(-1, -1) and m⊥=45m_{\perp} = \frac{4}{5}.           y−(−1)=45(x−(−1))y - (-1) = \frac{4}{5}(x - (-1))           y+1=45x+45y + 1 = \frac{4}{5}x + \frac{4}{5}           y=45x−15y = \frac{4}{5}x - \frac{1}{5}.     - Algebraic Verification of Point C(−6,−5)C(-6, -5):         - To show algebraically if point CC is on the perpendicular bisector, substitute its coordinates into the equation: −5=45(−6)−15-5 = \frac{4}{5}(-6) - \frac{1}{5}.         - −5=−245−15-5 = -\frac{24}{5} - \frac{1}{5}         - −5=−255-5 = -\frac{25}{5}         - −5=−5-5 = -5. Since the equation holds true, CC lies on the perpendicular bisector.     - Distance Properties (AC and BC):         - Calculate the distance between point CC and endpoints AA and BB using the distance formula: d=(x2−x1)2+(y2−y1)2d = \sqrt{(x_2-x_1)^2 + (y_2-y_1)^2}.         - AC Distance: AC=(−6−(−5))2+(−5−4)2=(−1)2+(−9)2=1+81=82AC = \sqrt{(-6 - (-5))^2 + (-5 - 4)^2} = \sqrt{(-1)^2 + (-9)^2} = \sqrt{1 + 81} = \sqrt{82}.         - BC Distance: BC=(−6−3)2+(−5−(−6))2=(−9)2+(1)2=81+1=82BC = \sqrt{(-6 - 3)^2 + (-5 - (-6))^2} = \sqrt{(-9)^2 + (1)^2} = \sqrt{81 + 1} = \sqrt{82}.         - Observation: Because AC=BCAC = BC, this supports the answer in part (b) based on the geometric principle that any point on the perpendicular bisector of a line segment is equidistant from the segment's endpoints.

  • Parallel Lines:     - For a line to be parallel to another, it must share the same slope (mm).     - An equation passing through (−2,4)(-2, 4) parallel to a given line will use the point-slope formula: y−4=m(x−(−2))y - 4 = m(x - (-2)).

  • Standard Form:     - Standard form of a linear equation is represented as Ax+By=CAx + By = C, where AA, BB, and CC are integers.

Algebraic Simplification and Quadratic Equations

  • Simplifying Expressions:     - Expressions must be simplified such that they contain no negative exponents.     - Key rule: x−a=1xax^{-a} = \frac{1}{x^a}.

  • Quadratic Equations:     - Methods for solving quadratic equations (ax2+bx+c=0ax^2 + bx + c = 0) include factoring, using the quadratic formula (x=−b±b2−4ac2ax = \frac{-b \pm \sqrt{b^2 - 4ac}}{2a}), or completing the square.
