  1. Chapter 5 - Coordinate Geometry Objectives To find the gradient of lines perpendicular to each other.

  2. Finding the Midpoint 2 1 3 4 5 6 8 9 7 (We’re going to use this later) Starter

  3. These lines are perpendicular

  4. PERPENDICULAR MEANS AT RIGHT ANGLES

  5. What is each gradient? 1 2 Gradient = ½ 2 Gradient = -2 1

  6. What is each gradient? Gradient = 3 1 3 3 1 Gradient = -1/3

  7. THE GRADIENT OF A PERPENDICULAR LINE IS THE NEGATIVE RECIPROCAL OF THE OTHER

  8. What is the gradient of the lines perpendicular to these? y = 2x + 1 m = 2 -1/m= -1/2 y = 2 + 4x m = 4 -1/m= -1/4 y = 3x + 2 m = 3 -1/m= -1/3 y + 2x = 2 m = -2 -1/m= 1/2 2y = 3x - 2 m = 3/2 -1/m= -2/3 5y + 2x = 3 m = -2/5 -1/m= 5/2

  9. Write down an equation of a line perpendicular to these: y = 2x + 1 y = 2 + 4x y = 3x + 2 y + 2x = 2 2y = 3x - 2 5y + 2x = 3

  10. THE PRODUCT OF GRADIENTS OF PERPENDICULAR LINES IS EQUAL TO -1 Exercise 5E Question 1

  11. Two points A(1,2) and B(-3,6) are joined to make the line AB. Find the equation of the perpendicular bisector of AB
