Slope (m) = (y2-y1)/(x2-x1)
y-intercept (b) = y1-((y2-y1)/(x2-x1))*x1
x-intercept = x1-y1*((x2-x1)/(y2-y1))
Run (change in x) = x2-x1
Rise (change in y) = y2-y1
Distance between the two plotted points = sqrt((x2-x1)^2+(y2-y1)^2)
Midpoint x-coordinate = (x1+x2)/2
Midpoint y-coordinate = (y1+y2)/2
Angle of inclination = atan((y2-y1)/(x2-x1))*180/pi
