Intercept Form of Straight Line

Intercept Form of Straight Line -- This Straight Line Lectures deals with derivation of Equation of straight line in slope intercept form. If we know the intercepts made by a line in x axis called x-intercept and y intercept made on y axis called y-intercept then we can easily write the equation of the straight line , which is ,
x/a +y/b = 1
Here symbols have their usual meanings, a = x-intercept and b= y intercept. There are many applications of this intercepts form of straight line and its is always better to understand the derivation of equation.
