Question

Find the slope of the line drawn below

Answer 1

slope is undefined

Explanation:

Calculate the slope m using the slope formula

m =
`(y_(2)-y_(1) )/(x_(2)-x_(1) )`

with (x₁, y₁ ) = (1, 2) and (x₂, y₂ ) = (1, - 3)

m =
`(-3-2)/(1-1)` =
`(-5)/(0)`

Since division by zero is undefined then the slope of the line is undefined
