A lesson on the gradient of a straight line, called slope in the US. It explains positive and negative gradients, defines gradient as the change in vertical distance over the change in horizontal distance, gives the formula using two points and for a line in the form Ax + By = C, and covers horizontal and vertical lines.
What this presentation covers
- what gradient (slope) measures
- positive and negative gradients
- rise over run
- the gradient formula using two points
- gradient from Ax + By = C
- horizontal and vertical lines
