Straight Lines

The document contains 25 questions related to straight lines and properties of triangles. Some key questions include finding the equations of lines passing through given points, finding coordinates of triangle vertices or orthocenter given additional information, determining the locus of a variable point, and properties related to intercepts made by lines. Many questions ask the learner to apply concepts like angle between lines, perpendicular lines, intercept theorem, and properties of medians, angle bisectors, and orthocenter of a triangle.
