Slope Between Two Points Formula
Calculates the slope of a line from two coordinate points.
Formula
m = (y₂ - y₁)/(x₂ - x₁)
Discipline: Mathematics. Result unit: dimensionless.
Variables and units
- m — Slope: Change in y divided by change in x
- x₁ — First X Coordinate: X coordinate of the first point
- y₁ — First Y Coordinate: Y coordinate of the first point
- x₂ — Second X Coordinate: X coordinate of the second point
- y₂ — Second Y Coordinate: Y coordinate of the second point
