The measure of steepness of line?
The "slope".
The slope of a line measures what?
The slope of a line measures the steepness of the line.
What relationship does the slope of the line describe?
it relates the relative steepness of a line.
How does a gradient affect the steepness of the line?
The higher the gradient, the more steeper the line will be.
The steepness of a line on a graph is called the?
The "steepness" of a line is called the slope. The slope represents the the amount of change in the y-direction of the line per every change in the x-direction. This is represented mathematically by slope = Δy/Δx Δy is also called the "rise" and Δx is also called the "run". The steepness can also be called the gradient, which is represented by an angle. The gradient can be calculated from the slope by using the formula gradient = tan(slope).
