Front

What is the distance formula used to calculate the distance between two points (x1, y1) and (x2, y2)?

Back

Distance = √((x2 - x1)² + (y2 - y1)²)

What is the slope formula used to find the slope of a line given two points (x1, y1) and (x2, y2)?

Back

Slope = (y2 - y1) / (x2 - x1)

What does a positive slope indicate about a line?

Back

A positive slope indicates that the line rises as it moves from left to right.

Front

What does a negative slope indicate about a line?

Back

A negative slope indicates that the line falls as it moves from left to right.
