Find the slope of the lines:
(a) Passing through the points `(3, -2)`and `( -1,4)`,
(b) Passing through the points `(3, -2)`and `(7, -2)`,
(c) Passing through the points `(3,-2)`and `(3,4)`,
(d) Making inclination of `60^@`with the positive direction of x-axis.

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

(i)We know that slope between two points `(x_1,y_1)` and `(x_2,y_2)`
`m=(y_2-y_1)/(x_2-x_1)`
Here, `x_1=-3,y_1=-2 "and" x_2=-1, y_2=4`
`:. "slope"=(4-(-2))/(-1-3)`
