You need these two basic solutions and facts to find the equation of a line:
- If you know the gradient
and one point
:
- If you know the gradient two points
:
- The slope of a line is the coefficient m when you write it in the
form
- Parallel lines have the same slope
- The slopes of perpendicular lines give -1 when multiplied
We can use this list to solve all the exercises:
b)
Use the first equation to get
c)
Use the second equation to get
d) same as c)
e) We derive the slope of the line by writing it as
So, the slope is -1/5. From here, it's the same as b)
f) same as e)
g) Again we find the slope as
so the slope is -3, and a perpendicular line has slope 1/3. From there, it's the same as b).
Answer:
Draw a line segment from (-7, -2) to (3, 8)
See the diagram below.
You do not have to draw the blue dashed line. It's there to show how the points reflect over.
=========================================================
Explanation:
The inverse will have us swap x and y. The point (x,y) becomes (y,x)
The endpoint (-2, -7) becomes (-7, -2)
Also (8,3) moves to (3, 8)
Visually, these points are being reflected over the line y = x to form the inverse. We only need to worry about the endpoints because 2 points is the minimum needed to form a straight line.
Check out the diagram below. The red segment is the inverse. The blue dashed line is the line y = x. You don't have to plot this line as it's just a visual tool to see what's going on. Your teacher likely will only want the red segment.
Since the original segment is parallel to y = x, the inverse is also parallel to the mirror line. All three lines are parallel.
