  2. Slope - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Slope

    Slope illustrated for y = (3/2)x − 1.Click on to enlarge Slope of a line in coordinates system, from f(x) = −12x + 2 to f(x) = 12x + 2. The slope of a line in the plane containing the x and y axes is generally represented by the letter m, [5] and is defined as the change in the y coordinate divided by the corresponding change in the x coordinate, between two distinct points on the line.

  3. Pappus's hexagon theorem - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pappus's_hexagon_theorem

    The Pappus configuration is the configuration of 9 lines and 9 points that occurs in Pappus's theorem, with each line meeting 3 of the points and each point meeting 3 lines. In general, the Pappus line does not pass through the point of intersection of A B C {\displaystyle ABC} and a b c {\displaystyle abc} . [ 3 ]

  4. Distance from a point to a line - Wikipedia

    The line with equation ax + by + c = 0 has slope -a/b, so any line perpendicular to it will have slope b/a (the negative reciprocal). Let (m, n) be the point of intersection of the line ax + by + c = 0 and the line perpendicular to it which passes through the point (x 0, y 0). The line through these two points is perpendicular to the original ...

    Symbolab is an answer engine [1] that provides step-by-step solutions to mathematical problems in a range of subjects. [2] It was originally developed by Israeli start-up company EqsQuest Ltd., under whom it was released for public use in 2011. In 2020, the company was acquired by American educational technology website Course Hero. [3] [4]

  6. Slope field - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Slope_field

    the slope field is an array of slope marks in the phase space (in any number of dimensions depending on the number of relevant variables; for example, two in the case of a first-order linear ODE, as seen to the right). Each slope mark is centered at a point (,,, …,) and is parallel to the vector

  7. Linear function (calculus) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Linear_function_(calculus)

    The graph of the linear approximation is the tangent line of the graph = at the point (, ()). The derivative slope f ′ ( c ) {\displaystyle f\,'(c)} generally varies with the point c . Linear functions can be characterized as the only real functions whose derivative is constant: if f ′ ( x ) = a {\displaystyle f\,'(x)=a} for all x , then f ...

  9. Slope number - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Slope_number

    A drawing of the Petersen graph with slope number 3. In graph drawing and geometric graph theory, the slope number of a graph is the minimum possible number of distinct slopes of edges in a drawing of the graph in which vertices are represented as points in the Euclidean plane and edges are represented as line segments that do not pass through any non-incident vertex.
