A higher slope value indicates a steeper
incline.
SlopeSlope is commonly used to describe the measurement of the steepness of a line or incline.

The slope is defined as the ratio of the "rise" over the "run" between two points
on a line.Rise is how far up or downRun is how far
to the left or right
![Page 4: Real life application of slope_Ajay_TD](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022081603/557d8ea4d8b42a50158b4a33/html5/thumbnails/4.jpg)
Rise = 2
Run = 3

When Miss Osterwise collects papers, she says, “Up and over.” That’s an easy way to remember slope!Rise means to go up (or down) and run means to go over to the right or left. Even back in 7th
grade, Miss O would say, “Up and
over!”
![Page 6: Real life application of slope_Ajay_TD](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022081603/557d8ea4d8b42a50158b4a33/html5/thumbnails/6.jpg)
Slope is represented in many ways in our world.
Here the steps go down and over, matching the slant of the railing above them.
![Page 7: Real life application of slope_Ajay_TD](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022081603/557d8ea4d8b42a50158b4a33/html5/thumbnails/7.jpg)
Rise = 18
Run = 20
Slope = 18 = 9 20 10
Like fractions and other ratios, slopes can be reduced to lowest terms.
![Page 8: Real life application of slope_Ajay_TD](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022081603/557d8ea4d8b42a50158b4a33/html5/thumbnails/8.jpg)
Staircases are commonly used as examples for slope.
![Page 9: Real life application of slope_Ajay_TD](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022081603/557d8ea4d8b42a50158b4a33/html5/thumbnails/9.jpg)
What can you say about the
slopes represented by
these staircases?
![Page 10: Real life application of slope_Ajay_TD](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022081603/557d8ea4d8b42a50158b4a33/html5/thumbnails/10.jpg)
Staircases aren’t the only way we see slope in the world around us. Buildings use slope in their architecture, as well.
Describe how slope
is represente
d in this picture.
![Page 11: Real life application of slope_Ajay_TD](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022081603/557d8ea4d8b42a50158b4a33/html5/thumbnails/11.jpg)
Remember how earlier we said that steep slopes were
represented by higher values?
Name an example of a part of this church that has a
high slope value.
![Page 12: Real life application of slope_Ajay_TD](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022081603/557d8ea4d8b42a50158b4a33/html5/thumbnails/12.jpg)
Do you think the slope on the left side of the first building is different from the slope on the right side? Why or why not?
![Page 13: Real life application of slope_Ajay_TD](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022081603/557d8ea4d8b42a50158b4a33/html5/thumbnails/13.jpg)
Here’s the same photo, but cropped so you can’t see the different lengths of the sides. The slopes are different only because two slopes slant in different directions.
Be careful not to confuse length with slant.

When a line rises from left to right we say it has a POSITIVE slope…
… but when the line drops from left to right we
say it has a NEGATIVE
slope.

How could you describe the slope of the roof of our beloved JP ?

Describe how slope is represented in each of the following photographs...

Someone didn’t pick up their chair in the cafeteria!

What about the slope of a horizontal line, like the arrow on this sign?
Horizontal lines always have a slope of ZERO!
![Page 22: Real life application of slope_Ajay_TD](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022081603/557d8ea4d8b42a50158b4a33/html5/thumbnails/22.jpg)
We all know that division by zero is undefined.
Vertical objects have a run equal to zero, so we say that vertical lines have NO SLOPE.
Vertical lines always have no slope!

The purpose of this slideshow was to show you that the concept of slope is all
around us.
As you go through your day today, stop occasionally and notice how slope is
represented in your world.
You will now receive a handout with pictures taken around Fairport.
Use a ruler to find each slope to the nearest centimeter.
