Slope y 2 y 1 x 2 x 1 text Slope. After you have identified the slope just pick two points from the slope and apply the formulaIn this step do not worry about the signJust do it in the positive version. Determine the slope of each side of a given geometric figure.
To find the slope you divide the difference of the y-coordinates of 2 points on a line by the difference of the x-coordinates of those same 2 points.
Insert the coordinates xAyA x A y A and xByB x B y B. If a slope slopes from the lower-right corner to the upper-left corner the slope is negative. First look at a graph of a line and find two points 1 and 2. 000027 What is Slope.
