(y-y)/(x-x) is very simple. y-y is obviously 0. The same goes for x-x. This results in a final fraction of 0/0. This could be considered 1 because if you think about it like 2/2=1, then you would get 0/0 =1 since the numerator and the denominator are the same. It could also be considered 0 because the numerator is 0 which obviously means there is nothing.

However, the answer to this is "undefined" because anything divided by 0 is undefined.
