Slope is the relationship of the rise to the run of a line.

m = rise = y2 – y1

run x2 – x1

Slope can be positive: + ÷ + or - ÷ -

Slope can be negative:

+ ÷ - or - ÷ +

Slope can be 0: 0

÷

anything

Slope can be undefined:

ALWAYS SIMPLIFY SLOPES

Slopes are positive, negative, 0, or Undefined (No slope).

Slopes are written as integers with one sign, proper fractions, or improper fractions (no mixed fractions).

When 0 is on top, the slope is 0.

When 0 is on bottom, the slope is undefined or no slope.

m = -4

m = 1/3

YES, Since the slopes are the same (1=1),

then the lines ARE PARALLEL.

2/6 = 1/3 9/0 = undefined 0/22 = 0

ApplicationApplication

Identify rise and run.Which word points to the rise?

Put the rise on top.

What is the run?

Put the run on bottom.

Change to same units, then Divide out and Answer the question in reasonable units.

Perpendicular LinesPerpendicular Lines When two lines are perpendicular, there When two lines are perpendicular, there

are two cases with relation to slopes:are two cases with relation to slopes: Case 1-If neither line is vertical, the Case 1-If neither line is vertical, the

product of the two slopes is negative one product of the two slopes is negative one (Opposite reciprocals). (Opposite reciprocals). mm11=2/3 and m=2/3 and m22= - 3/2= - 3/2

Case 2 – If one of the lines is vertical, Case 2 – If one of the lines is vertical, then the perpendicular line is horizontal. then the perpendicular line is horizontal. mm11=undefined and m=undefined and m22= 0= 0
