slope
Provided the run is not zero, rise/run gives the gradient, or slope, between two points.
It's just rise over run
Because that's the definition of 'slope'.
Slope refers to the gradient of a graph, for linear graphs (straight-line) this is equal to the change in y divided by the change in x - often referred to as the 'rise over the run'.
In mathematical terms, the rise is how far a line goes up for a given distance. The run is how far a line goes along for a given distance. Rise and run is the angle of inclination or slope of a member or structure, expressed as the ratio of the vertical rise to the horizontal run.
a run in math is referring to slope, which is rise over run. rise is how far you travel up, and run is how far you travel over.
Provided the run is not zero, rise/run gives the gradient, or slope, between two points.
It's just rise over run
Tangent
Either can be bigger: it is no big deal.

"The ratio of the vertical change to the horizontal change between two points on a line. It measures the steepness of a line." Rise = vertical change Run = horizontal change The terms are commonly used as "rise over run" because the equation for calculating the slope(m) of a line is: m = (y2-y1) / (x2-x1) the y points being the difference in rise and the x points being the difference in run m = rise / run

Yes, i do want to build a ramp for skateboarding
rise divided by run: a fraction, rise is y and run is x (you run on a horizontal plane) (you rise on a vertical plane)
Change in y values over change in x values. Rise over run.
