Coordinate geometry
1.3What the syllabus asks of you
- find the equation of a straight line given sufficient information
- interpret and use any of the forms y = mx + c, y – y₁ = m(x – x₁), ax + by + c = 0 in solving problems
- understand that the equation (x – a)² + (y – b)² = r ² represents the circle with centre (a, b) and radius r
- use algebraic methods to solve problems involving lines and circles
- understand the relationship between a graph and its associated algebraic equation, and use the relationship between points of intersection of graphs and solutions of equations.
