Point-Slope Form: A Quick Guide

The point-slope form is a way to express the equation of a line using the coordinates of a point on the line and its slope. The formula is given by:

$$y - y_1 = m(x - x_1)$$

Where (x₁, y₁) are the coordinates of a known point on the line, and m is the slope of the line. This form is particularly useful when you know a point on the line and the slope, and want to quickly write down the equation of the line. It highlights the slope and a specific point, making it easy to understand the line's properties directly from the equation. Use this tool to easily calculate and visualize lines in point-slope form!
