Gradient and slope are one and the same.
It is a number that reflects steepness.
How do we calculate the gradient of
a line formed by 2 given points?
- Hide the gradient
- Drag A and/or B to new positions
- Calculate the new gradient
- Check your answer
As the line gets steeper, what happens to the gradient?
When is gradient positive and when is it negative?
Let's apply this to find equation of a straight line.
Practice finding the Gradient.
IMPORTANT: If answer is not exact give it correct to 2 decimal
place.
You'll might need a calculator for this one.
Just for the rush -- add a Timer
to challenge against the clock.
