1. **Problem Statement:** Transform the equation $-2x + 5y = 10$ into four different forms: (i) Two points form, (ii) Two intercepts form, (iii) Symmetric form, and (iv) Normal form.
2. **Given Equation:**
$$-2x + 5y = 10$$
3. **(i) Two Points Form:**
Choose two points on the line by assigning values to $x$ and solving for $y$.
- Let $x=0$:
$$-2(0) + 5y = 10 \Rightarrow 5y = 10 \Rightarrow y = 2$$
- Let $y=0$:
$$-2x + 5(0) = 10 \Rightarrow -2x = 10 \Rightarrow x = -5$$
Two points are $(0,2)$ and $(-5,0)$.
The two points form is:
$$y - 2 = \frac{0 - 2}{-5 - 0}(x - 0) = \frac{-2}{-5}x = \frac{2}{5}x$$
Simplified:
$$y - 2 = \frac{2}{5}x$$
4. **(ii) Two Intercepts Form:**
The intercepts are $x$-intercept $(-5,0)$ and $y$-intercept $(0,2)$.
The two intercepts form is:
$$\frac{x}{-5} + \frac{y}{2} = 1$$
5. **(iii) Symmetric Form:**
Rewrite the equation to isolate $x$ and $y$ terms:
$$-2x + 5y = 10 \Rightarrow 5y = 10 + 2x \Rightarrow y = 2 + \frac{2}{5}x$$
From intercepts:
$$\frac{x}{-5} + \frac{y}{2} = 1 \Rightarrow \frac{x}{-5} = 1 - \frac{y}{2}$$
Symmetric form is:
$$\frac{x}{-5} + \frac{y}{2} = 1$$
6. **(iv) Normal Form:**
The normal form is:
$$x \cos \alpha + y \sin \alpha = p$$
Rewrite original equation:
$$-2x + 5y = 10$$
Calculate length of normal vector:
$$\sqrt{(-2)^2 + 5^2} = \sqrt{4 + 25} = \sqrt{29}$$
Divide entire equation by $\sqrt{29}$:
$$\frac{-2}{\sqrt{29}}x + \frac{5}{\sqrt{29}}y = \frac{10}{\sqrt{29}}$$
So,
$$\cos \alpha = \frac{-2}{\sqrt{29}}, \quad \sin \alpha = \frac{5}{\sqrt{29}}, \quad p = \frac{10}{\sqrt{29}}$$
**Final answers:**
(i) Two points form:
$$y - 2 = \frac{2}{5}x$$
(ii) Two intercepts form:
$$\frac{x}{-5} + \frac{y}{2} = 1$$
(iii) Symmetric form:
$$\frac{x}{-5} + \frac{y}{2} = 1$$
(iv) Normal form:
$$\frac{-2}{\sqrt{29}}x + \frac{5}{\sqrt{29}}y = \frac{10}{\sqrt{29}}$$
