The ratio of the vertical distance to the horizontal distance is sometimes colloquially phrased as "rise over run"; the numerically calculated value is called "slope". Mathematically, slope can be thought of as the tangent (function) of the "angle of elevation".

What is the ratio of the vertical distance to the horizontal distance?
It is a measure of the average gradient or slope.
Meaning of the slope as a rate of change?
The slope is the ratio of rise over the run. The rise is the change in the vertical distance.The run is the change in the horizontal distance.So the slope is the ratio of two changes, horizontal divided by vertical.
What is a graph with distance on the vertical axis and time on the horizontal axis is called?
distance-time graph
How can an absolute value equation help you calculate the distance form one point to another on the coordinate plane when the points are on the same vertical line?
The absolute difference in the vertical direction is zero but the absolute difference in the horizontal direction will be the horizontal distance - which is the distance between the points.
What is the formula for vertical and horizontal distance?
dy= (v1sinO)2/2gdx= (Vx)(t)
What is the ratio of the vertical distance to the horizontal distance?
It is a measure of the average gradient or slope.
What Is the ratio of vertical with the horizontal?
The ratio is 1 to 1.
Is aspect ratio of a monitor generally defined as the ratio of either vertical to horizontal points or horizontal to vertical points depending on the convention followed?
Aspect ratio of a monitor is generally defined as the ratio of the 1) vertical to horizontal points 2) horizontal to vertical points 3) either 1) or 2) depending on the conventionfollowed
What is term for the ratio of vertical change over horizontal change?
