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 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 word describes the slope of the line passing through points (5 12) and (5 -13)?
It would be a undefined slope.There are four types of slope:Postive slope (when lines go uphill from left to right)Negative slope (when lines go downhill from left to right)Zero slope (when lines are horizontal)Undefined slope (when lines are vertical)
What is the slope of a vertical line?
Good question. They have infinite slopes. Incidentally, vertical lines are not functions in the formal sense. One x value is mapped on to an infinite number of y values. A function requires that each x maps on to only one y value.
Give some real examples of vertical lines?
Vertical lines are lines that go straight up and down, with no horizontal component. Some real examples of vertical lines include the edges of a door frame, the corner of a bookshelf, and the sides of a skyscraper. These lines have a slope that is undefined, as they have no horizontal change.
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 is the slope of all vertical lines?
The slope of a vertical line is not defined.
Does everyline have a slope and y intercept?
No, vertical lines have an undefined slope.
What type of slope does vertical lines have?
a slope of zero. horizontal is undefined
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 vertical lines always have an undefined slope?
Yes.
What is the slope of non vertical lines?
33
How many slopes do vertical lines have?
The slope of a vertical line is undefined. The slope of a horizontal line is 0. Hope this helps.
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.
