So we need 2 geometrical parameters to specify a straight line.
What are the parameters of a straight line?
The general equation of a straight line in slope-intercept form, y = mx + b, in which m and b are parameters, is an example of a parametric equation.
What are the properties of a straight line?
The properties of straight lines are written below.
- A straight line has infinite length. ...
- A straight line has zero areas, zero volume. ...
- A straight line is a one-dimensional figure.
- An infinite number of lines can pass through a single point, but there is only one unique line that passes through two points.
