The slope of the line is the ratio of rate of change in y coordinate with respect to change in x coordinates


\text{ Slope=}(y_2-y_1)/(x_2-x_1)

Given Points : (2,5) & (2,8)

Substitute the coordinates in the expression of Slope


\begin{gathered} \text{ Slope=}(y_2-y_1)/(x_2-x_1) \\ Wehave,x_1=2,x_2=2,y_1=5,y_2=8 \\ \text{Slope}=(8-5)/(2-2) \\ \text{Slope = 0} \end{gathered}

There is no slope with this given points.

Answer : E) Undefined
