Standing on the top of a concave slope means you can not see down to the bottom due to the bulge in the middle. A concave slope starts gently and gets steeper, once over the bulge, near the bottom.
Standing on a concave slope means that you can see the bottom of the slope. A concave slope starts off steeply and becomes less steep near the bottom.

Calculate the difference of the y-coordinates, and divide it by the difference of the x-coordinates. That is the slope.
To find the slope we need to divide the difference in rise between these two points by the difference in run between them. The difference in rise equals: 3-2 = 1. The difference in run between these points equals: 2-4 = -2.Now we just divide 1/-2 and we get the slope of the line formed by these two points: -0.5
Calculate the slope as (difference of y-coordinates) / (difference of x-coordinates).
Slope refers to the how upward or downward a point is whereas deflection at a point refers to how bent a particular point is.
The difference in x-coordinates is called the "run", and the difference in y-coordinates is the "rise".
