3. Use the midpoint formula relationship to find the coordinates of the midpoint for two given points.
4. Find the coordinates of points at a given distance from a given point.
5. Graph equations by finding intercepts and plotting points.
6. Find the missing coordinate to fit the graph of a given equation when given either the x or y coordinate.
7. Graph a line given the slope and a point.
8. Write the equation of a line given specific information about the graph.
9. Write the equation of a line parallel or perpendicular to a given line.
10. Identify the slope and intercepts of a line from the graph or equation.
11. Given the general form of the equation of a circle, use the technique of completing the square to find the center and radius.
