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.
