Parallelogram
If ABCD is a parallelogram then diagonals AC and BD have a common

midpoint.
Equation of Straight line
To find the equation of a line of best fit, you need the gradient(m) of the
line, and the y-intercept(c) of the line. The gradient can be found by taking
any two points on the line and using the following formula:
𝑦2 − 𝑦1
𝑔𝑟𝑎𝑑𝑖𝑒𝑛𝑡 = 𝑚 =
𝑥2 − 𝑥1
The y-intercept is the y-coordinate of the point at which the line crosses
the y-axis (it may need to be extended). This will give the following
equation:
𝑦 = 𝑚𝑥 + 𝑐
Where y and x are the variables, m is the gradient and c is the y-intercept.
Equation of parallel lines
Parallel line have equal gradient.
If lines 𝑦 = 𝑚1 𝑐1 and 𝑦 = 𝑚2 𝑐2 are parallel then 𝑚1 = 𝑚2
Equations of perpendicular line

If lines 𝑦 = 𝑚1 𝑐1 and 𝑦 = 𝑚2 𝑐2 are perpendicular then 𝑚1 = − and 𝑚2 =
𝑚2

− .
𝑚1
Perpendicular bisector
The line that passes through the midpoint of A

and B, and perpendicular bisector of AB.
For any point P on the line, PA = PB
Points of Intersection
The coordinates of point of intersection of a line and a non-parallel line or a

curve can be obtained by solving their equations simultaneously.
8. Linear Law
To apply the linear law for a non-linear equation in variables x and y, express
the equation in the form
𝑌 = 𝑚𝑋 + 𝑐
Where X and Y are expressions in x and/or y.
