Front

If a line has a slope of 0, what does that mean?

Back

A slope of 0 means the line is horizontal and does not rise or fall.

Front

If a line has an undefined slope, what does that mean?

Back

An undefined slope means the line is vertical, and it cannot be expressed as a ratio of rise over run.
