Point Slope Form
Student, Teacher, and Writer in United States
The formula of point-slope form is used to find the equation of a line.
This formula is used only when we know the slope of the line and a point on the line.
The equation of a line whose slope is m
and which passes through a point (x1,y1) is found using the point-slope form.
The equation of the point slope form is:
y-y1=m(x-x1)
where (x,y)
is a random point on the line.
