Question 522221
<font face="Times New Roman" size="+2">


Use the two-point form of an equation of a line:


*[tex \LARGE \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ y\ -\ y_1\ =\ \left(\frac{y_1\ -\ y_2}{x_1\ -\ x_2}\right)(x\ -\ x_1) ]


where *[tex \Large \left(x_1,y_1\right)] and *[tex \Large \left(x_2,y_2\right)] are the coordinates of the given points.


You certainly need to do any indicated arithmetic and then you may also have to simplify and/or rearrange to one of the typical forms desired, namely the slope-intercept form: *[tex \Large y\ =\ mx\ +\ b], or the Standard Form: *[tex \Large Ax\ +\ By\ =\ C].  (Note: some texts/professors require that A, B, and C be integers for proper standard form.  Check before you hand in a paper.)

*[tex \LARGE e^{i\pi} + 1 = 0]
