Slope Triangle Method

Notice triangle ABE. Notice triangle ACD. Which option best explains how the rate of change is consistent for descent.

• The slope from A to B is 8/8. The slope from A to C is 10/10. The slopes have different rise and run so the rate of change is not consistent.

• The slope from A to B is 8/8. The slope from A to C is 10/10. Since both slopes reduce to 1, the rate of change is consistent.

• The slope is negative.

• Both triangles end at point A.
