Edexcel IGCSE·Mathematics 4MA1 Regions On The Plane
📋Key knowledge — Co Ordinate Geometry

Formulas & equations

  • Distance between two points: d = √((x₂−x₁)² + (y₂−y₁)²)
  • Midpoint: M = ((x₁+x₂)/2 , (y₁+y₂)/2)
  • Equation of a line through (x₁,y₁) with gradient m: y−y₁ = m(x−x₁)
  • Gradient: m = (y₂−y₁) ÷ (x₂−x₁)

Key facts & rules

  • Parallel lines: same gradient.
  • Perpendicular lines: gradients multiply to −1.
  • The equation of a circle with centre (a,b) and radius r: (x−a)² + (y−b)² = r².
  • A tangent to a circle is perpendicular to the radius at the point of contact.
