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. In this algebra worksheet, learners identify the slope and y-intercept of the given equations. They graph...

Using a specific example, Sal shows how to find the equation of a tangent line to a given function at a specific point. Specifically, he solves the problem of finding the tangent line to the function f(x) = xex at x = 1. This problem...

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...

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.

This lecture continues reviewing linear equations and slope problems with several example problems. Those who didn't grasp the concepts during class might find this lesson helpful.

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...
