This video tutorial covers the concept of slope in mathematics, focusing on how to calculate and understand it using similar triangles. It explains how to draw lines with specific slopes and match lines to their corresponding slopes. The lesson includes practical examples and homework exercises to reinforce the learning objectives.

What is the slope of a line if the vertical side of a triangle is 3 and the horizontal side is 4?

• 2/3

• 4/3

• 3/4

• 1/2

If two lines have the same slope, what can be said about their relationship?

• They are parallel

• They intersect at one point

• They are identical

• They are perpendicular

If a line has a slope of 1/2, what does this mean in terms of rise and run?

• Rise 2, Run 1

• Rise 2, Run 2

• Rise 1, Run 2

• Rise 1, Run 1

How do you determine the slope of a line from a graph?

• By measuring the angle

• By dividing the vertical change by the horizontal change

• By adding the vertical and horizontal changes

• By counting the number of squares

What is the slope of a line that rises 4 units and runs 2 units?

• 3

• 2

• 1

• 1/2

What happens to the slope of a line if the triangle is flipped upside down?

• The slope becomes negative

• The slope becomes zero

• The slope remains the same

• The slope doubles

What is the scale factor if triangle A with sides 3, 4, 5 is similar to triangle B with sides 6, 8, 10?

• 1

• 2

• 3

• 4

How can you prove that two triangles are similar?

• By showing they have the same perimeter

• By showing they are congruent

• By showing they have the same angles and proportional sides

• By showing they have the same area

Which of the following sets of side lengths could form a triangle similar to one with sides 3, 4, 5?

• 12, 16, 20

• 9, 12, 15

• 6, 8, 10

• All of the above

If a triangle has sides 3, 4, 5, and another triangle has sides 6, 7, 8, are they similar?

• No, because they have different areas

• Yes, because they have the same perimeter

• No, because the sides are not proportional

• Yes, because they have the same angles
