Description

In this chapter, the Cartesian coordinate system is introduced. The distance between points, midpoints, perpendicular/parallel lines and angles between two lines are covered. The general and point slope form of the equation of the straight line are also covered. 1.2 Lesson Learning Outcomes By the end of this lesson, you should be able to; 1.2.1 Carry out operations on the Straight Line. 1.2.1 The Straight Line In this work the geometrical problems considered are those that are presented on two dimensional plane only and it is therefore important at this point to discuss the plane. Consider any plane with a point denoted by O, which we call the point of reference or the origin. Let line X be horizontal and pass through O and line Y be vertical and pass through O. The horizontal line X is referred to as the x-axis and the vertical line Y is the y-axis. Distance measured from the y-axis is referred to as an abscissa and it is positive if measured to the right and negative if measured to the left. A vertical distance from the x-axis is called a y-ordinate and it is positive if measured above the x-axis and negative if measured below the x-axis. Any point on the plane can described by its abscissa and its ordinate as P(x, y), for any point P. The symbol (x, y) represents the coordinates of the point, where x is the abscissa and y the ordinate and it is also referred to as the Cartesian coordinates of P.

INTRODUCTION TO COUNSELLING PSYCHOLOGY YEAR 1 Trending!
DEFINITION OF TERMS Counseling is a process, as well as a relationship, between persons. Contrary to what some people believe, counseling is not concentrated advice-giving. The aim of the counselor is usually to assist the person or persons (client or clients) in realizing a change in behavior or attitude, or to seek achievement of goals. Often there are varieties of problems for which the counselee may seek to find help. Some forms of counseling include the teaching of social skills, effective communication, spiritual guidance, decision-making, and career choices. Counseling may sometimes be needed to aid one in coping with a crisis. Other types of counseling include premarital and marital counseling; grief and loss (divorce, death or amputation); domestic violence and other types of abuse; special counseling situations like terminal illness (death and dying); as well as counseling of emotionally and mentally disturbed individuals. Counseling could be short-term (brief counseling) or long-term. Psychology is the study of the human mind and behavior.
