Chapter 4 Flashcards
Midpoint Formula
(x1+x2)/2) , (y1+y2)/2
Distance Formula
square root of (x2-x1)^2 + (y2-y1)^2
Intersection Formula
Substitute one equation for y in the other equation. This gives you the x coordinate. Plug the x coordinate into either of the equations to find the y coordinate.
How do you find the perpendicular line?
Making the gradient into its negative reciprocal
When are lines parallel?
When the gradient is the same
What is a vertical line’s gradient?
Undefined
Absolute Error Formula
0.5 x Smallest Unit of Measurement
Absolute Percentage Error
Just percentage error but without a - or + so
relative/actual x 100
Relative Percentage Error and how it differentiates from Absolute Percentage Error
relative/actual x 100.
It is different from Absolute Percentage error because it can be a negative.
