  • find the gradient of a line segment, the midpoint of the line interval and the distance between 2 distinct points on the Cartesian plane
  • Example: recognising that the gradient of a line is calculated using the gradient of a line segment on that line and is independent of which 2 distinct points on the line are used for…
  • Common trap: using digital tools and transformations to illustrate that parallel lines in the Cartesian plane have the same gradient and that the relationship between the gradients of…
