Finding the Slope of a Line Through Two Given Points

The slope of the land is an important feature when considering the erosion that will occur. In this resource, which is part of a rain garden unit, learners calculate the slope of the proposed garden site. Even if you are not planning a...

This resource should be called "All About Lines, and Then Some!". Packed full of all the key components of linear functions, learners review how to set up different equations, find intercepts, and graph. All the main topics are included...

Is it normal to find a perpendicular line to the tangent line? The short video provides a problem to find the equation of the normal line to a function. Beginning with an explanation of the normal line, the 27th installment in a 31-part...

Plug it in when using points to find the equation of a line. Two sets of points can only mean one thing, the slope formula. Have your learners start by finding the slope and then plugging that slope and one of the points into slope...

You can't get from point A to point B if you can't find point A. Using a helpful video lesson, viewers learn how to plot points on a coordinate plane. The instructor emphasizes the vertical and horizontal distance of the x and...

When students are ready to use the slope and a coordinate pair to determine the equation of a line using slope-intercept form, then they will be ready to watch this video. Sal does a fantastic job explaining this concept.

Given the coordinates for a point on a line and given the slope of that line, write an equation in point-slope form. Really, all that needs to be done is to use the formula for point-slope form and plug in the values.

You have a slope and a given point and now you have to graph it. Begin by drawing a graph and then plotting the given point. Remember that slope is rise over run. So from the given point move the appropriate spaces to plot the next...

You have a slope and a given point and now you have to graph it. Begin by drawing a graph and then plotting the given point. Remember that slope is rise over run. So, from the given point move the appropriate spaces to plot the next...

Use the slope formula to find the missing coordinate. You've been given all the needed information to solve this problem. So all you need to do is plug in the values and solve for the missing variable value.
