Linear Functions & Graphs Formulas — Class 8 IB MYP

Graph linear functions, find slope and intercepts, and interpret graphs in context.

Key Formulas

Slope-Intercept

y = mx + c

Gradient

m = \dfrac{y_2 - y_1}{x_2 - x_1} = \dfrac{\text{rise}}{\text{run}}

x-intercept

\text{Set } y = 0 \text{ and solve}

y-intercept

c \text{ (value when } x = 0\text{)}

Parallel Lines

m_1 = m_2

Perpendicular Lines

m_1 \times m_2 = -1

Worked Examples

1Using: Supplementary Angles

If one angle is 65 degrees, find its supplement.

Step 1: Supplement = 180 - 65

Step 2: = 115 degrees.

Answer: 115 degrees

2Using: Vertically Opposite

Two lines intersect. If one angle is 40 degrees, find the vertically opposite angle.

Step 1: Vertically opposite angles are equal.

Step 2: The angle = 40 degrees.

Answer: 40 degrees
