Graphs And Coordinates Flashcards
How do you find coordinates of midpoint of a line?
[ (x1 - x2) / 2 , (y1 - y2) / 2]
How find gradient of line?
How find normal gradient?
Gradient = Δy / Δx
Normal gradient = -Δx / Δy
Formula for equation of a line?
Y - y1 = m (x - x1)
What is the discriminant?
What does its values tell us?
b^2 - 4ac
Greater than 0; 2 real roots
Less than 0; no real roots
Equal to 0; 1 repeated root
What go reciprocal graphs look like?
Asymptotes with the coordinate axes
Equation for a circle?
(x -a)^2 + (y - b) = r^2
What is transformation f(x) + a?
Translation vector 0i + aj,
Transformation f(x + a)?
Translation vector -ai + 0j
Transformation a f(x)?
Stretch in y direction X a
Transformation f(ax)
Stretch in x direction X 1/a
Transformation -f(x)?
Reflection in x axis (y = 0)
Transformation f(-x)
Reflection in y axis (x = 0)
Transformation |f(x)|
Parts below x axis are reflected up in the x axis
Transformation f(|x|)
Right of y axis reflects left in y axis
