Explanation Given Information: The provided points are ( p , q ) and ( − p , − q ) where, p ≠ 0 . Formula used: The equation of slope-intercept form of the straight line is given as, y = m x + c Where, x and y are the coordinates, m represents the slope and c is the y -intercept respectively. The slope is given by, If a straight line passing through the point ( x 1 , y 1 ) and having the slope m then the y -intercept of the line is given as, c = y 1 − m x 1 If a straight line passing through two points ( x 1 , y 1 ) , and ( x 2 , y 2 ) then the slope m is given as, m = Δ y Δ x = y 2 − y 1 x 2 − x 1 Where, Δ y is the rate of change in y and Δ x is the rate of change in x . Calculation: Consider the provided points ( p , q ) and ( − p , − q ) where, p ≠ 0 , To calculate the linear equation of the straight line passing through two points ( p , q ) and ( − p , − q ) where, p ≠ 0 apply the slope formula as, m = y 2 − y 1 x 2 − x 1 Now, substitute the values of ( x 1 , y 1 ) = ( p , q ) and

Family of Curves

A family of curves is a group of curves that are each described by a parametrization in which one or more variables are parameters. In general, the parameters have more complexity on the assembly of the curve than an ordinary linear transformation. These…

XZ Plane

In order to understand XZ plane, it's helpful to understand two-dimensional and three-dimensional spaces. To plot a point on a plane, two numbers are needed, and these two numbers in the plane can be represented as an ordered pair (a,b) where a and b are…

Euclidean Geometry

Geometry is the branch of mathematics that deals with flat surfaces like lines, angles, points, two-dimensional figures, etc. In Euclidean geometry, one studies the geometrical shapes that rely on different theorems and axioms. This (pure mathematics) ge…

Lines and Angles

In a two-dimensional plane, a line is simply a figure that joins two points. Usually, lines are used for presenting objects that are straight in shape and have minimal depth or width.
