begin mathsize 12px style Slope space of space line space joining space the space points space straight P space left parenthesis straight a comma space straight b right parenthesis space and space straight B space left parenthesis straight p comma space straight q right parenthesis space equals space fraction numerator straight q minus straight p over denominator straight p minus straight a end fraction end style

But slope of line joining the points P and Q = n      ....(given)
Þ  q – b = n(p – a)
