Analytic Geometry
Chapter 5
Analytic Geometry
• Unites geometry and algebra
• Coordinate system enables Use of algebra to answer geometry questions Proof using algebraic formulas
• Requires understanding of points on the plane
Points
• Consider Activity 5.1
• Number line Positive to right, negative left (by convention) 1:1 correspondence between reals and points on
line Some numbers constructible, some not (what?)
Points
• Distance between points on number line
• Now consider two number lines intersecting Usually but not entirely necessary Denoted by
Cartesian product

Points
• Note coordinate axis from Activity 5.2
• Note non- axes Units on each axis need not be equal
1, 2
Distance• How to determine distance?
• Use Law of Cosines• Then generalize for any two ordered pairs• What happens when = 90 ?
Midpoints
• Theorem 5.1The midpoint of the segment between two points P(xP, yP) and Q(xQ, yQ) is the point
• Prove For non axes For axes

Lines• A one dimensional object which has both

Slope
• Theorem 5.2For a non vertical line the slope is well defined. No matter which two points are used for the calculation, the value is the same
Slope
• What about a vertical line? The x value is zero The slope is undefined
• Should not say slope is infinite Positive? Negative? Actually infinity is not a number
Linear Equation
• Theorem 5.3A line can be described by a linear equation, and a linear equation describes a line.
• Author suggestsgeneral form is most versatile Consider the vertical line

Alternative Direction Description
• Consider Activity 5.4
• Specify direction with angle of inclination Note relationship between slope and tan Consider what happens with vertical line
Parallel Lines
• Theorem 5.4Two lines are parallel iff the two lines have equal slopes
• Proof:Use x-axis as a transversal … corresponding angles
Perpendicular Lines
• Theorem 5.5Two lines (neither vertical) with slopes m1 and m2 are perpendicular iff m1 m2 = -1
Equivalent to saying(the slopes arenegative reciprocals)

Perpendicular Lines
Proof
• Use coordinatesand resultsof PythagoreanTheorem forABC
• Also representslopes of AC and CB using coordinates
Distance
• Circle: Locus of points, same distance from fixed
center Can be described by center and radius
2 2r x a y b
Distance
• For given circle with Center at (2, 3) Radius = 5
• Determine equationy = ?
Distance
• Consider the distance between a point and a line What problems
exist?
• Consider thecircle centeredat C, tangentto the line
Distance
• Constructing the circle Centered at C Tangent to
the line
Using Analysis to Find Distance
• Given algebraic descriptions of line and point Determine equation
of line PQ Then determine
intersection oftwo lines
Now use distanceformula
Using Coordinates in Proofs
• Consider Activity 5.7
The lengths ofthe three segmentsare equal
• Use equations,coordinates to prove
Using Coordinates in Proofs
• Set one corner at (0,0)
• Establish arbitrarydistances, c and d
• Determine midpointcoordinates
Using Coordinates in Proofs
• Determine equationsof the lines AC, DE, FB
• Solve for intersections at G and H
• Use distanceformula to findAH, HG, and GC
Using Coordinates in Proofs
• Note figure for algebraic proof that perpendiculars from vertices to opposite sides are concurrent (orthocenter)
• Arrange one ofperpendicularsto be the y-axis
• Locate concurrencypoint for the linesat x = 0
Using Coordinates in Proofs
• Recall the radical axis of two circles is a line• We seek points where
• We calculate
• Set these equal to each other, solve for y

Polar Coordinates
• Uses Origin point Single axis (a ray)
• Describe a point P by giving Distance to the origin (length of segment OP) Angle OP makes with polar axis
• Point P is , 5.5,3

Polar Coordinates
• Try it out Locate these points
(3, /2), (2, 2/3), (-5, /4), (5, -/3)
• Note (x, y) (r, )
is not 1:1 (r, ) gives exactly one (x, y) (x, y) can be many (r, ) values
Polar Coordinates
• Conversion formulas From Cartesian to polar Try (3, -2)

• Now Use these to convert Ax + By = C to r = f()
• Try 3x + 5y = 2 Convert to polar equation
• Also r sec = 3 Convert to Cartesian equation
Polar Coordinates

Polar In Geogebra
• Consider graphing r = 1 + cos (3)
• Define f(x) = 1 + cos(3x) Hide the curve that appears.
• Define Curve[f(t) *cos(t), f(t) *sin(t), t, 0, 2 * pi]
