What does slope mean? In mathematics, the slope (also called the gradient) of a line is a measurement of how steep the line is or how much of a slant it has. In math, a line is an object with no thickness that extends forever in both directions.
To slope is to incline vertically in an oblique direction: The ground slopes (upward or downward) sharply here. To slant is to fall to one side, to lie obliquely to some line whether horizontal or perpendicular: The road slants off to the right.
Slope of a line is the measure of the steepness and the direction of the line. It can be calculated using any two points lying on the line. Learn formula and method to find slope of line.
In mathematics, the slope or gradient of a line is a number that describes the direction of the line on a plane. [1] Often denoted by the letter m, slope is calculated as the ratio of the vertical change to the horizontal change ("rise over run") between two distinct points on the line, giving the same number for any choice of points.
n. 1. An inclined line, surface, plane, position, or direction. 2. A stretch of ground forming a natural or artificial incline: ski slopes. 3. a. A deviation from the horizontal. b. The amount or degree of such deviation. 4. Mathematics. a.
