1Question

Circle equation — form?

Answer

$(x-h)^2 + (y-k)^2 = r^2$.

2Question

Hyperbola — graph of?

Answer

Inverse proportion function, $ y= rac{k}{x} $.

3Question

Vertical line test — purpose?

Answer

Checks if a graph is a function.

4Question

Standard circle form — features?

Answer

Center $(h,k)$ and radius $r$.

5Question

Distance formula — definition?

Answer

Square root of sum of squared coordinate differences.

6Question

Inverse proportion — relationship?

Answer

Product of variables is constant ($ xy=k $).

7Question

Midpoint — formula?

Answer

Average of x's and y's coordinates.

8Question

Line equation — from two points?

Answer

Use point-slope or two-point formula.

9Question

Linear function — form?

Answer

$ y = mx + c $, a straight line.

10Question

Perpendicular lines — slopes?

Answer

Negative reciprocal slopes.

11Question

Slope — role?

Answer

Indicates line steepness and direction.

12Question

Parallel lines — slopes?

Answer

Equal slopes, different intercepts.

13Question

Inverse proportion graph?

Answer

Hyperbola with asymptotes at axes.

14Question

Relation vs Function — difference?

Answer

Function assigns exactly one y to each x.

15Question

Relation — key property?

Answer

Set of ordered pairs, may or may not be a function.

16Question

Line intersection — method?

Answer

Solve equations simultaneously or graphically.
