Inclination of a Line

What is the definition of inclination of a line?

• The inclination of a line is the slope of the line.

• The inclination of a line is the angle that the line makes with the positive x-axis in a coordinate plane.

• The inclination of a line is the length of the line segment between two points on the line.

• The inclination of a line is the angle that the line makes with the positive y-axis in a coordinate plane.
