What type of slope does vertical lines have?
a slope of zero. horizontal is undefined
Lines always have a slope of zero.?
Horizontal lines always have a slope of zero. (i.e completely flat, level surfaces have a slope of zero). However a line does not have to have a slope of zero in order to be a line.
Why cant equations of vertical lines be written in slope-intercept form but equations of horizontal lines can?
For vertical lines, when you try to figure out the slope, you get zero in the denominator - in other words, a division by zero.
What is the difference between a line that has a zero slope and a line that has a undefined slope?
zero is horizontal, undefined is vertical
The slope of every vertical line is?
The slope of any vertical Line is undefined because anything divided by zero is undefined.
Do vertical lines have a slpoe of zero?
No. Horizontal lines have zero slope. Vertical lines have infinite slope.
A vertical line has a run which is?
run as in slope of a line is zero . horizontal lines have no slope and vertical lines have a slope of zero
What lines always have an undefined slope.?
Vertical lines always have an undefined slope. Slope for y = f(x) is given by :slope = dy/dxdx is zero at any point along a vertical line, making the slope undefined along a vertical line.
What type of slope does vertical lines have?
a slope of zero. horizontal is undefined
Do vertical lines always have an slope?
The slope of a vertical line is undefined. It either slants straight up or straight down-- you can not say which. The formula for slope does not work in this case because the denominator is zero.
Lines always have a slope of zero.?
Horizontal lines always have a slope of zero. (i.e completely flat, level surfaces have a slope of zero). However a line does not have to have a slope of zero in order to be a line.
Why cant equations of vertical lines be written in slope-intercept form but equations of horizontal lines can?
For vertical lines, when you try to figure out the slope, you get zero in the denominator - in other words, a division by zero.
When is the product of the slope of two perpendicular lines not equal to -1?
When the lines are horizontal and vertical. (slope of zero) (undefined slope)
Do horizontal lines have an undefined slope?
No. The slope of a horizontal line is zero. The slope of a vertical line is undefined.
Some lines have no slope?
A horizontal line has a slope of zero. For a vertical line, the slope is not defined (change of y / change of x would result in a division by zero).A horizontal line has a slope of zero. For a vertical line, the slope is not defined (change of y / change of x would result in a division by zero).A horizontal line has a slope of zero. For a vertical line, the slope is not defined (change of y / change of x would result in a division by zero).A horizontal line has a slope of zero. For a vertical line, the slope is not defined (change of y / change of x would result in a division by zero).
Do all lines have a slope?
Although all lines have the relationship that defines slope, one can argue that not all lines do have one. The exception would be vertical lines. Slope is defined as the vertical rate of change divided by the horizontal rate of change. In the case of a vertical line, there is no horizontal rate of change, and calculating slope would cause division by zero. The closest you could come to expressing the slope of a vertical line would be ∞
What is the difference between a line with a slope of zero and no slope?
A line with slope of zero is horizontal. A line with no slope is vertical because slope is undefined on a vertical line.
