Coordinate Geometry: frequently asked questions

What is the distance formula for two points?

For A(x₁, y₁) and B(x₂, y₂), AB = √((x₂ − x₁)² + (y₂ − y₁)²). Substitute each coordinate with its sign. The squared terms are added, so the distance is non-negative.

How do I use the section formula without reversing the ratio?

For AP : PB = m : n, multiply B’s coordinates by m and A’s coordinates by n, then divide their sums by m + n. Keep the names A and B fixed. For a midpoint, m = n = 1.

How do I find where an axis divides a line segment?

Let the division ratio be m : n and write the section-formula coordinates. Set y = 0 for the x-axis or x = 0 for the y-axis. Solve for m : n, then substitute it to find the other coordinate if asked.

What is the difference between AP : AB and AP : PB?

AB is the whole segment, while PB is its remaining part. If AP : AB = 2 : 5, then PB corresponds to 5 − 2 = 3 parts, so AP : PB = 2 : 3. Convert to the divided-segment ratio before using the section formula.

How do I find the length of a median?

A median joins a vertex to the midpoint of the opposite side. First use the midpoint formula to find that point. Then apply the distance formula between the vertex and the midpoint. Do not use the opposite side’s full endpoint coordinates as the median’s endpoint.

How can I prove three points are collinear using distance?

Find the three pairwise distances and identify the largest. If the sum of the two smaller distances equals the largest, the points are collinear and the middle point lies between the other two. Use exact values rather than rounded decimals for the equality.

Are equal sides enough to prove that a quadrilateral is a square?

No. Four equal sides establish a rhombus, which need not be a square. Also establish a right angle or equal diagonals. For a rectangle, show the relevant parallelogram property and a right angle or equal diagonals.

Can an equidistant-point question have more than one answer?

Yes. Points equidistant from two distinct points lie on their perpendicular bisector, so infinitely many exist unless another condition is given. A condition such as lying on an axis can restrict the answer. Keep both values when both satisfy the original question.

How do I prove a parallelogram using coordinates?

Find the midpoint of each diagonal. If the two midpoints coincide, the diagonals bisect each other, so the quadrilateral is a parallelogram. Keep the vertices in the stated order: in ABCD, compare the midpoints of AC and BD.

Do I answer both OR alternatives?
