What is slope? Is there a different types of slope?
Positive Slope Lines that have positive slope, slant "up hill"
Negative Slope Lines that have negative slope, slant “down hill"
Zero Slope Lines that are horizontal have a zero slope
No Slope or Undefined Slope Vertical lines have no slope, or undefined slope.
# 4 # 2 # 3 # 1 Classify the slope of each of these lines as positive, negative, zero slope, or no slope…
Rise Run Vertical Change (UP)Horizontal Change (OVER) • Yes, it is usually a fraction. • Yes, you simplify. • Yes, it can be improper.
Instructions: • Draw each diagram. • Measure the rise and run. • Label your diagram. • Find each slope.
Roller Coaster Rise # 1 Run # 2 Measure the rise and the run of each part of the roller coaster in inches. Find the slope of each part.
# 2 # 3 # 1 Skateboarding “Pyramid” (Side View) Measure the rise and the run of each part of the pyramid in inches. Find the slope of each part.
Mount Neverest (Not drawn to scale) Measure the rise and the run of each part of the mountain in centimeters. Find the slope of each part. # 2 # 1 # 3
How many points do you need to draw a line? • One • Two • Three
Now that we have our line let’s find its slope… Remember we are finding the following ratio: Vertical Change or Rise Horizontal Change Run
The slope is… 1 2
The slope is… • Black line 3 • Red Line 1 • Blue Line -1/2
The slope is… • Orange line 0 • Green Line No Slope (or Undefined)
# 4 # 2 # 3 # 1 Find the slope of each of these lines…
