PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE HELP WITH MATH. ILL GIVE POINTS, BRAINY, AND FRIEND.

distance formula

The distance formula is really just the Pythagorean Theorem in disguise. To calculate the distance AB between point A(x1,y1) and B(x2,y2) , first draw a right triangle which has the segment ¯AB as its hypotenuse. Since AC is a horizontal distance, it is just the difference between the x -coordinates: (x2−x1)

slope formula

To calculate the slope of a line you need only two points from that line, (x1, y1) and (x2, y2). The equation used to calculate the slope from two points is: On a graph, this can be represented as: There are three steps in calculating the slope of a straight line when you are not given its equation.

midpoint formula

The midpoint is halfway between the two end points: Its x value is halfway between the two x values. Its y value is halfway between the two y values.

The distance formula is d=√(x2 - x1)² + (y2 - y1)² and it's similar to the pythagorean theorem; finding the ditance between one point and another. The slope formula is y2 - y1 / x2 - x1 or rise/run. It also finds the distance between two points but slope measures whether the line is increasing or decreasing, and by what rate. The midpoint formula is (x1 + x2 /2 , y1 + y2 / 2) which is a set of coordinates. It finds the middle or midpoint of the line connecting two points.

Hope this helps!
