FLASHCARD QUESTION
Front
What is the slope of a line?
Back
The slope of a line is a measure of its steepness, typically represented as 'm' in the slope-intercept form of a linear equation. It is calculated as the change in y divided by the change in x (rise over run).

FLASHCARD QUESTION
Front
How do you find the slope between two points (x1, y1) and (x2, y2)?
Back
The slope (m) is calculated using the formula: m = (y2 - y1) / (x2 - x1).

What does it mean for two lines to be perpendicular?
Back
Two lines are perpendicular if the product of their slopes is -1. This means that one line has a slope that is the negative reciprocal of the other.

FLASHCARD QUESTION
Front
What is the point-slope form of a linear equation?
Back
The point-slope form of a linear equation is given by y - y1 = m(x - x1), where (x1, y1) is a point on the line and m is the slope.

FLASHCARD QUESTION
Front
How do you convert from point-slope form to slope-intercept form?
Back
To convert from point-slope form (y - y1 = m(x - x1)) to slope-intercept form (y = mx + b), solve for y to isolate it on one side.
