Activity 2.
Read the story “Coordinate Geometry: Get to the point!". Answer the
questions below.
A very famous mathematician called Rene Descartes lay in bed one night.
As he lay there, he looked up at the ceiling in his bedroom. He noticed a fly was
asleep on the ceiling. Descartes, being a mathematician wondered if he could
figure out a way of stating where exactly the fly was on the ceiling. Obviously it
has to be a precise description he thought. I can’t really say, “To the left” or
“Near the right “or “In the middle”.
When Descartes looked up at his ceiling, this is what he saw.
A fly was resting there. He began to think about how he might be able to
describe the exact position of the fly.
Descartes decided that if he drew two lines at right angles to each other,
then he might be able to come up with a way of describing the exact position of
the fly. How do you think this would have helped him?
Descartes decided to place numbers on the bottom (horizontal) row and on
the side (vertical) row. He could now state accurately where exactly the fly was
on the ceiling.

WHAT IS IT
The story “Coordinate Geometry: Get to the point!" described how the
Cartesian plane was discovered by Rene Descartes, who is known as the “Father of
Modern Mathematics”.
There are also points which lie in the x- and y-axes. The points which lie in the
x-axis have coordinates (x, 0) and the points which lie in the y-axis have coordinates
(0, y), where x and y are real numbers.

WHAT IS IT
The slope m of the line passing through two points P 1(x1, y1) and P2(x2, y2) is given by
; ;
or where
; ;
Note that:
A basic property of a line, other than vertical line, is that its slope is constant.
The slope of the horizontal line is zero while that of the vertical line is
undefined. A vertical line does not represent a linear function.
The value of the slope m tells the trend of the graph.
• If m is positive, then the graph is increasing from left to right.
• If m is negative, then the graph is decreasing from left to right.
• If m is zero, then the graph is a horizontal line.
• If m is undefined, then the graph is a vertical line.

3. Plot the 4 point in one Cartesian Coordinate plane and connect then using ruler.
WHAT IS IT
You have learned earlier that a linear function can be described by its equation, either in
the form y = mx + b or Ax + By = C. A linear equation can also be described by its graph.
Graphing linear equations can be done using any of the four methods:
1. Using two points
2. Using x- and y-intercepts
3. Using the slope and the y-intercept
4. Using the slope and a point
Graph : y = 2x + 1
18
Activity 3. Graph: y = x + 3 using two points
Solution:
The linear equation can be graphed using the x –intercept (a) and y – intercept (b).
The x value where the graph crosses the x – axis is called the x - intercept and the y value
where the graph crosses the y-axis is called the y – intercept. The x- and y-intercepts of the
line could represent two points, which are (a, 0) and (0, b). Thus, the intercepts are enough
to graph the linear equation.
Illustrative Example:
Graph : 3x – 2y = 6

Activity 4. Graph: y =2 x + 4 using x-intercept and y - intercept
Solution:
Illustrative Example:
Graph : 3x – 2y = 4
20
Activity 5. Graph: y =3 x - 4 using slope and y - intercept
Solution:
The fourth method in graphing linear equation is by using the slope and one point. This can
be done by plotting first the given point, then finding the other point using the slope.
Illustrative Example:
Graph : y = 2x + 1

Finding the Equation of the Line
WHAT’S IN
Activity 1.
Answer the following.
WHAT IS IT
Points, slopes and intercepts were used to graph of a linear equations. You
can use these properties to solve linear equations in two variables.
If the slope and the y-intercept of a line is given, the slope-intercept form can
be used to determine the equation of a line.
Slope-Intercept Form: y = mx + b where m ≠0
Example:
Find the equation of the line whose slope is 5 and y-intercept is -1.
Solution:
If m = 5 and the y-intercept = -1, the equation of a line can be solved by
substituting the value of the slope (m) and the y-intercept (b) in y = mx + b.
Then, the equation of the line is y =5x – 1.

3
Solution:
Solution:
Using the point-slope form:
Using the point-slope form:
(y – y1) = m(x – x1)
(y – y1) = m(x – x1)
y – (-1) = 2( x – 3) 2
y + 1 = 2x – 6 y – 5 = ( x – 4)
3
y = 2x – 6 – 1 3(y – 5) = 2(x – 4)
y = 2x -7 3y – 15 = 2x – 8
3y – 2x = - 8 + 15
-1( -2x + 3y)= -1(7)
2x – 3y = -7
The equation is in the form of
Ax + By = C.

Similarly, you can solve the equation of a line by using any two points on the line.
The two-point form is derived from the point-slope form as shown below:
(y – y1) = m(x – x1)
y; y1 1
Multiply both sides by x; x
