Syntax

Slope[line g]

Action

Creates the slope of a line g (if g is parallel to y-axis, it returns -infinity, if g is defined as yAxis or line parelel to yAxis, it returns infinity).

Note

• This command also draws the slope triangle whose size may be changed (see Properties dialog).
• To show the slope as fraction, use FractionText Command
• To visualize slope of function in given point you may use this command together with Tangent Command. Calculating this slope can be done simply by Derivative Command.

Examples

• Slope[Line[(1,0),(0,2)]] returns -2.
• Slope Command
• Lines: applet showing relation between slopes of perpendicular lines.
