Positive Slope (visual)

• A line that falls from left to right

• A horizontal line

• A vertical line

shortest sides of a triangle

• legs

• hypotenuse

• angles

• vertices

Linear (equation examples)

• x^2 + y^2 = r^2

• y = a sin(bx)

• y = e^x

adjacent angles (visual)

• Angles that are opposite each other when two lines intersect

• Angles that add up to 90 degrees

• Angles that are equal in measure

Undefined Slope (visual)

• A slope that is vertical

• A slope that is zero

• A slope that cannot be defined

angle opposite the hypotenuse

• acute angle

• obtuse angle

• right angle

• straight angle
