Example Question #1 : How To Find Slope Of A Line
One end of a board that is four feet long is on the ground. The other end is balanced on a box that is one foot tall, creating a slope. What is the slope of the board?
The slope of a line is equal to .
Given that the box is one foot tall, the rise will be equal to "1."
Given that the board is four feet long, the run will be equal to "4."
Therefore, the slope is equal to .
