Lesson Plan on Finding the Equation of a Line
November 07, 2018

I. OBJECTIVES
A. Learning Competency Find the equation of a line given a two points and a slope and a point.
B. Learning Outcome Attained mastery in finding linear equations.
C. Learning Objectives 1. State the formulae in finding the equation of a line.
(KSA) 2. Determine equation of a line given a two points and a slope and a point using the
formulae; two – point form, slope - intercept form and point – slope form.
3. Appreciate the importance of understanding key concepts of Linear Equations.
II. CONTENT Linear Equation
III. LEARNING RESOURCES
A. References Grade 8 Mathematics Learner’s Material
pp. 192 - 195
B. Other Resources Intermediate Algebra by Julieta G. Bernabe
IV. PROCEDURE
A. Reviewing previous Questions to be asked:
lesson or presenting the - Who can give me an equation of a line?
new lesson - How will you graph an equation of a line?
- How will you know the trend of a line given the equation of a line?
- Can we generate an equation of a line given a two points and slope and point?

B. Establishing a purpose “Equation of a Line”

for the lesson
1. In a market or in a mall, have you found things related to each other? How about two
two quantities related to each other? Cite an examples of things/quantities.
2. Do you think sellers of cited things/ quantities have experienced problems with them?
3. How do the sellers manage a problem with the two related things/ quantities?
4. Can we generate an equation out of the two related quantities to help the sellers deal
with problems on their business?

C. Presenting The teacher will present the following formulae in finding the equation of a line :
examples/instances of the - Slope – intercept form : y = mx + b
new lesson - point – slope form: y – y1 = m ( x – x1 )
- two – point form :
y2 – y1
y – y1 = (x – x1 )
x2 - x1
Questions to be asked:
- Can we get help from these formulas? When?
- How do you find the equation of a line given the two points? How about given the slope
and point?

D. Discussing new The teacher will ask the students to give two things/ quantities which are usually observed
concepts and practicing in our place and make a linear equation out of them.
new skills
Questions to be asked:
-What linear equation did you generate?
-How did you generate the equation?
- Do you find the equation significant for us? Justify your answer.
F. Developing mastery The teacher divides the class in 4 groups. Each group is assigned with task to be presented
(Leads to Formative before the class and is rated accordingly based on the rubrics established by the teacher.
Assessment) The task for each group is found below.
Group 1
a. Find the equation of a line using the 3 formulae presented that passes through
the A( 3,4 ) and B( 4 , 7 ).
b. Find the equation of a line given the m = 2 and C ( 0 , 4 ).

Group 2
a. Find the equation of a line using the 3 formulae presented that passes through
the A( 8,4 ) and B( 6 , 10 ).
 b. Find the equation of a line given the m = 1 and C ( 5 , -2 ).
Group 3
a. Find the equation of a line using the 3 formulae presented that passes through
the A( 2,5 ) and B( 3 , -2 ).
b. Find the equation of a line given the m = 3 and C ( 1 , -3 ).
Group 4
a. Find the equation of a line using the 3 formulae presented that passes through
the A( 2,2 ) and B( -1 , -7 ).
b. Find the equation of a line given the m = -2 and C ( 3 , -1 ).

G. Finding practical Values: In every challenges you encounter , there is an opportunity for growth.
applications of concepts How will you deal with the challenges that may come into your life?

Real - life problem: (Relationship between price and no. of supplies of ballpen)
1. The company supplies 10,000 pcs. of ballpen when the price of each ballpen is
Php5 but when the price reaches Php7, the supplier supplies 40,500 pcs.

Questions to be asked:
- How will you determine the equation that describes the no. of ballpen to be supplied?
- How many pcs. of ballpen will the supplier supply if the price drops to Php3?

H. Making generalizations Questions to be asked:

and abstractions about the
lesson
I. Evaluating learning
- What are formulas we need to use in finding the equation of a line given the two points?
How about given the slope and a point?
- How do you find finding the equation of a line using the 3 formulas?
- Are linear equations important? Why?
-What real-life problems that can be solved easily by applying Linear Equation?
Quiz time!
