What can you say about the steepness of a line?
1 answer
The steepness of a line refers to its slope or inclination. It indicates how rapidly the line increases or decreases as you move along it. If a line has a steep slope, it means it is steeply inclined and shows a significant change in vertical distance for a given change in horizontal distance. On the other hand, if a line has a less steep slope, it means the incline is gradual, and there is a smaller change in vertical distance for a given change in horizontal distance. The steepness of a line can be positive (rising), negative (falling), or zero (horizontal).
