SLIDE 1
DAY 21 – SLOPE
SLIDE 2 SLOPES ARE COMMONLY
ASSOCIATED WITH MOUNTAINS.
SLIDE 3 THE SLOPE WE ARE STUDYING IS
ASSOCIATED WITH THE GRAPH OF A LINE.
SLIDE 4 DEFINITIONS OF SLOPE
The tilt or inclination of a line The ratio of vertical change to horizontal change. The change in y over the change in x
SLIDE 5
TILT OR INCLINATION
SLIDE 6
VERTICAL CHANGE HORIZONTAL CHANGE This ratio is also known as 𝑺𝒋𝒕𝒇 𝑺𝒗𝒐
SLIDE 7 HOW MANY POINTS DO YOU NEED TO
DRAW A LINE?
One Two Three
SLIDE 8
GRAPH (3,2) AND (-1,-1)
SLIDE 9
DRAW A LINE THROUGH THE POINTS.
SLIDE 10 NOW THAT WE HAVE OUR LINE LETS FIND
ITS SLOPE.
Remember we are finding the following ratio: Vertical
Rise Horizontal Run
SLIDE 11 VERTICAL CHANGE
OR THE RISE
3
SLIDE 12
HORIZONTAL CHANGE
OR THE RUN
4 3
SLIDE 13
VERTICAL RISE HORIZONTAL RUN 3 4
SLIDE 14
FIND THE SLOPE OF THE FOLLOWING LINE.
SLIDE 15
THE SLOPE IS… 1 2
SLIDE 16
FIND THE SLOPE OF THE LINE.
SLIDE 18
FIND THE SLOPE OF THESE LINES.
SLIDE 19
THE SLOPE IS…
Black line = 3 Red Line = 1
SLIDE 20
FIND THE SLOPE OF THESE LINES
SLIDE 21 THE SLOPE IS…
Orange line Green Line
Undefined
SLIDE 22
LET’S DRAW A LINE USING
SLOPE.
What else do you think you need besides the slope in order to draw a line? A point!
SLIDE 23 IF YOU KNOW THE SLOPE AND ONE POINT
ON THE LINE YOU CAN DRAW THE LINE.
EXAMPLE: SLOPE IS 1/3 AND THE POINT (-2,- 1)
SLIDE 24
NOW YOU DRAW A LINE.
Given: slope is 2/3 and the
point is (1,0)
Given: slope is –3 and the
point is (–2,4) lope is 1 and the point is (2,3)
SLIDE 25
THE GRAPHS ARE…
