hello

to calculate the slope of the line, we can simply use the formula to calculate slope by using the co-ordiante points

the points are (6, -8) and (6, 2)


\begin{gathered} x_1=6 \\ y_1=-8 \\ x_2=6 \\ y_2=2 \end{gathered}
\begin{gathered} \text{slope}=(y_2-y_1)/(x_2-x_1) \\ \text{slope}=(2-(-8))/(6-6)=(2+8)/(0)=(10)/(0)=\text{undefinded} \end{gathered}

from the calculations above, the slope of the line is undefined
