what is it called when a slope is a vertical line?

what is a slope in general?

• The slope is the length of the line segment.
• The slope is the angle of a line in degrees.
• The slope is the ratio of rise over run.
• The slope is the total distance traveled.

what is a zero slope?

• A zero slope means the line is steep.
• A zero slope represents a diagonal line.
• A zero slope means the line is horizontal.
• A zero slope indicates the line is vertical.

What does a positive slope indicate?

• A positive slope indicates a vertical line.

• A positive slope indicates a line moving downwards from left to right.

• A positive slope indicates a horizontal line.

• A positive slope indicates a line moving upwards from left to right.

How is the slope of a line calculated?

• The slope is calculated by dividing the run by the rise.

• The slope is calculated by multiplying the rise by the run.

• The slope is calculated by subtracting the run from the rise.

• The slope is calculated by dividing the rise by the run.

identify the points

• X= (2, 0), and Y= (0, 2)

• X= (0, -2), and Y= (-2, 0)

• X= (1, 0) and Y= (0, 1)

• X= (-2, 0), and Y= (0, -2)

What does a negative slope indicate?

• A negative slope indicates a horizontal line.

• A negative slope indicates a line moving downwards from left to right.

• A negative slope indicates a line moving upwards from left to right.

• A negative slope indicates a vertical line.

Which of the following lines has an undefined slope?

• A line parallel to the y-axis.

• A line with a positive slope.

How does the 'Rise over Run' formula work?

• The 'Rise over Run' formula measures the area of a triangle.
• The 'Rise over Run' formula is used to calculate the distance between two points.
• The 'Rise over Run' formula determines the angle of elevation of a line.
• The 'Rise over Run' formula calculates the slope of a line by dividing the vertical change by the horizontal change between two points.
