Version 1 of 5 — Topic: Graphs & Coordinate Geometry
Total Marks: 80

Section A: Basic Coordinate Geometry

Q1 [3 marks]
Gradient $m = \frac{y_2 - y_1}{x_2 - x_1} = \frac{6 - (-3)}{5 - 2} = \frac{9}{3} = 3$ .
Answer: 3
Teaching note: Gradient measures steepness; subtract y-coordinates then x-coordinates in same order. Common mistake: reversing order gives wrong sign.

Q2 [3 marks]
Given line gradient = 2, so perpendicular gradient = $-\frac{1}{2}$ .
Using $y - y_1 = m(x - x_1)$ : $y - (-2) = -\frac{1}{2}(x - 4)$
$y + 2 = -\frac{1}{2}x + 2$ → $y = -\frac{1}{2}x$ .
Answer: $y = -\frac{1}{2}x$
Marking: 1 mark perpendicular gradient, 2 marks equation.

Q3 [4 marks]
$AB = \sqrt{(5-1)^2 + (2-2)^2} = 4$ .
$AC = \sqrt{(1-1)^2 + (7-2)^2} = 5$ .
Area = $\frac{1}{2} \times 4 \times 5 = 10$ (right angle at A).
Answer: AB = 4, AC = 5, Area = 10
Teaching note: Use distance formula; triangle is right-angled at A because AB horizontal, AC vertical.

Answer: Centre $(2,-3)$ , radius 5

Q8 [6 marks]
Substitute $y=x+1$ into $x^2+y^2=25$ :
$x^2 + (x+1)^2 = 25$ → $2x^2 + 2x - 24 = 0$ → $x^2 + x - 12 = 0$ → $(x+4)(x-3)=0$ .
$x=-4 → y=-3$ ; $x=3 → y=4$ . R $(-4,-3)$ , S $(3,4)$ .
$RS = \sqrt{(3+4)^2 + (4+3)^2} = \sqrt{49+49} = 7\sqrt{2}$ .

Marking: 2 coords, 2 coords, 2 length.

Section B: Intermediate Applications

Q9 [4 marks]

EF: through (8,3),(2,9): $m = \frac{9-3}{2-8} = -1$ , $y-3 = -1(x-8)$ → $y = -x + 11$ .
Answer: Right angle shown, $y = -x + 11$

Q10 [4 marks]
Centre = midpoint of AB = $(3,1)$ ; radius = $\frac{1}{2}\sqrt{(5-1)^2+(4+2)^2} = \frac{1}{2}\sqrt{52} = \sqrt{13}$ .

Answer: $(x-3)^2 + (y-1)^2 = 13$

Q11 [4 marks]
$2x^2 - 3x + 1 = mx - 2$ → $2x^2 - (3+m)x + 3 = 0$ .
One intersection → discriminant 0: $(3+m)^2 - 24 = 0$ → $m = -3 \pm 2\sqrt{6}$ .
Answer: $m = -3 \pm 2\sqrt{6}$

Q12 [4 marks]

Translate 1 unit left: $f(x+1)$
Reflect in x-axis: $-f(x+1)$
Vertical stretch factor 2: $-2f(x+1)$
Answer: Translation left 1, reflection x-axis, stretch y by 2.

Q13 [4 marks]
Midpoint GH = $(1,0)$ ; gradient GH = $-1$ ; perpendicular gradient = 1.
$y - 0 = 1(x - 1)$ → $y = x - 1$ .
Answer: $y = x - 1$

Q14 [4 marks]
Right triangle at origin; circumcentre = midpoint hypotenuse = $(2, 1.5)$ , $r = \frac{1}{2}\sqrt{4^2+3^2} = 2.5$ .
$(x-2)^2 + (y-1.5)^2 = 6.25$ .
Answer: $(x-2)^2 + (y-1.5)^2 = 6.25$

Section C: Challenging Problems

Q15 [4 marks]
Centres: (1,2) and (5,2); distance = 4. Radii 3 and 4. Since $4 < 3+4$ and $4 > 4-3$ , they intersect at two points.
Answer: Distance 4, intersect.

Q16 [4 marks]
Substitute: $x^2 + (kx+3)^2 = 10$ → $(1+k^2)x^2 + 6kx -1 =0$ .
Discriminant 0: $36k^2 + 4(1+k^2)=0$ → $40k^2 = -4$ no real? Recheck: $x^2 + k^2x^2+6kx+9=10$ → $(1+k^2)x^2+6kx-1=0$ , $\Delta = 36k^2 +4(1+k^2)=40k^2+4>0$ always. Tangent condition: distance from origin to line = $\sqrt{10}$ : $\frac{3}{\sqrt{1+k^2}} = \sqrt{10}$ → $9 = 10(1+k^2)$ → $k^2 = -0.1$ no real. Correct: line $y=kx+3$ distance to origin $\frac{|3|}{\sqrt{k^2+1}} = \sqrt{10}$ impossible. Actually circle radius $\sqrt{10}≈3.16$ , line intercept 3, tangent possible if $\frac{3}{\sqrt{k^2+1}}=\sqrt{10}$ → no. So no real k.
Answer: No real values of k.
Note: Syllabus-aligned; shows tangent via distance.

Q17 [4 marks]
Midpoint PR = $(4,1)$ . Median from Q(4,5) to (4,1) is vertical line $x=4$ .
Answer: $x = 4$

Q18 [4 marks]
Reflect: $y = -(x^2 - 4x + 3) = -x^2 + 4x - 3$ .
Translate left 2: replace $x$ by $x+2$ : $y = -(x+2)^2 + 4(x+2) - 3 = -x^2 + 1$ .
Answer: $y = -x^2 + 1$

Q19 [4 marks]
Gradient = $\tan 45^\circ = 1$ . $y - 3 = 1(x - 2)$ → $y = x + 1$ . Cuts y-axis at $(0,1)$ .
Answer: $y = x + 1$ , $(0,1)$

Q20 [4 marks]
Substitute $y=2x-1$ : $x^2+(2x-1)^2+2x-4(2x-1)-20=0$ → $5x^2-6x-15=0$ .
$x = \frac{6 \pm \sqrt{36+300}}{10} = \frac{6 \pm 6\sqrt{3}}{10} = \frac{3 \pm 3\sqrt{3}}{5}$ .
$y = 2x-1$ gives coords. Distance MN = $\sqrt{(x_1-x_2)^2+(y_1-y_2)^2} = \sqrt{(6\sqrt{3}/5)^2 + (12\sqrt{3}/5)^2} = \sqrt{432/25+432/25?}$ compute: $\Delta x = 6\sqrt{3}/5$ , $\Delta y = 12\sqrt{3}/5$ , squared sum = $108/25+432/25=540/25=21.6$ , not 80. Recompute equation: $x^2+4x^2-4x+1+2x-8x+4-20=0$ → $5x^2-10x-15=0$ → $x^2-2x-3=0$ → x=3,-1. Then y=5,-3. M(3,5),N(-1,-3). MN = $\sqrt{4^2+8^2}=\sqrt{80}$ .
Answer: M(3,5), N(-1,-3), length $\sqrt{80}$ shown.
