Rise Over Run

The slope of the land is an important feature when considering the erosion that will occur. In this resource, which is part of a rain garden unit, learners calculate the slope of the proposed garden site. Even if you are not planning a...

With problems applying to modern-day topics like Netflix and McDonald's, math whizzes analyze graphs and investigate the slopes. For this algebra worksheet, learners identify the slope and y-intercept of the given equations. They graph...

Rise and run to find slope. Given a graph of a line, the presentation shows how to find the slope by determining the rise and the run. The resource, part of an extensive geometry playlist, reveals the four basic slopes of lines.

Is it normal to find a perpendicular line to the tangent line? The short video provides a problem to find the equation of the normal line to a function. Beginning with an explanation of the normal line, the 27th installment in a 31-part...

Pupils learn how to find the derivative of a function by applying the definition using limits. Learners understand that the derivative provides the slope of the tangent line and use that information to find the equation of the tangent...

Here is a fairly basic video that uses three equations, each written in slope-intercept form, to determine whether the lines are parallel. Sal graphs each equation on the same coordinate plane to show how their slopes compare. The video...

When students are ready to use the slope and a coordinate pair to determine the equation of a line using slope-intercept form, then they will be ready to watch this video. Sal does a fantastic job explaining this concept.

Evaluate the steepness of lines, also known as the slope, by watching this video. A tutor explains what the slope of a line is and compares two different lines to demonstrate slope. A practical introductory video for classes that are...

Evaluate the steepness of lines, also known as the slope, by watching this video. A tutor explains what the slope of a line is and compares 2 different lines to demonstrate slope. A practical introductory video for classes that are just...

Investigate the different types of slope using graphs and ordered pairs. Scholars use the slope formula to determine the slope of a line between two points. Includes examples with a slope of zero and with no slope. The lesson follows a...
