Summary Gradient Intercept Form of an equation of a line helps plot the graph: If we are to sketch a curve, we find the gradient by differentiating the equation to find the derivative. An asymptote of a curve is a line such that the distance between the curve and the line approaches zero as one … Read more

Summary Formula for equation of a circle is: Where (a, b) is the center of the circle and r is the radius. Before we move on to the equation of a circle, let’s just recap Pythagoras theorem from your GCSE studies: We know that Pythagoras Theorem can be applied when we have a right angle … Read more

Summary Midpoint of a line: Distance between two points: Gradient of a straight line 3 forms of equation of a straight line: Gradient Intercept Form: Gradient Point Form: Two Point Form: What is coordinate geometry? As we know from GCSE’s geometry is basically about how shapes, points, lines all relate to each other. When we … Read more
