Answer:

undefined

Explanation:

The slope of a line is the ratio of the vertical change between two points to the horizontal change between those same two points. When the line is vertical, the horizontal change is zero. That means the slope is some (non-zero) value divided by zero. Division by 0 gives a result that is "undefined."

The slope of a vertical line is "undefined."
