Solve problems involving midpoint and length of a line. Find and use the equation of a perpendicular bisector.
Transform given relationships to and from straight-line form. Determine unknown constants by calculating the gradient or intercept of the transformed graph. Includes forms such as y = Ax^n, y = Ab^x, y^2 = Ax^3 + B, e^(2y) = Ax^2 + B and y^3 = A ln x + B.
