How do you find a slope of a triangle?

In a triangle there are three angle.So, the side opposite to the greatest angle will be greatest side in the triangle and hence it will be the slope of the triangle. you can find slope of any side of the triangle by finding tangent of the angle made by it to the horizontal side eg. place one side of the triangle horizontally. to find the slope of any side A, drop a normal from the apex to intersect the imaginary horizontal line.measure the length(l1) of the normal. measure the distance (l2) between the intersecting point and other end of side A. l1/l2 will give you the slope of side A.
