A-Level Maths Key Assignment 01 Linear Functions

,A-Level Maths Key Assignment 01 Linear Functions


ESSENTIAL INFORMATION for this Key Assignment

𝑦 is a linear function of 𝑥 if it can be expressed in the form 𝑦 = 𝑚𝑥 + 𝑐.
The graph of 𝑦 against 𝑥 is then a straight line, where 𝑚 is the gradient of the
line and 𝑐 is the value of 𝑦 when 𝑥 is zero and is the intercept on the 𝑦-axis.


A straight line of gradient 𝑚 passing through the point (𝑥! , 𝑦! ) has equation
𝑦 − 𝑦! = 𝑚(𝑥 − 𝑥! )


Lines that are parallel have the same gradient.


Two lines with gradients 𝑚! and 𝑚" are perpendicular if
𝑚! 𝑚" = −1


The mid-point of (𝑥! , 𝑦! ) and (𝑥" , 𝑦" ) is
𝑥! + 𝑥" 𝑦! + 𝑦"
, , .
2 2


The perpendicular bisector of two points 𝐴 and 𝐵 is the line that passes
through the midpoint of 𝐴 and 𝐵 and is perpendicular to 𝐴𝐵.


To determine where a line crosses the 𝑥-axis, substitute 𝑦 = 0 and solve the
resulting equation. To determine where a line crosses the 𝑦-axis, substitute
𝑥 = 0 and solve the resulting equation.
