Question

Determine the slope of each line segment of AQRS. Show your work or explain your reasoning.

Answer 1

The slope of each line segment of ΔQRS are-

• QR = 3/10
• RS = - 10/3
• QS = -7/13

What is meant by the slope of the line?

• A slope of a line is defined in mathematics as the change in y coordinate to regard to the shift in x coordinate.
• The net change in y-coordinate is denoted by  Δy, whereas the net change in x-coordinate is denoted by  Δx.

For the given question,

The coordinates of each vertices of the triangle are-

Q = (-7, -2)

R = (3, 1)

S = (6, -9)

The formula for the slope of the line segment.

Slope = m = (y2 - y1)/(x2 - x1)

Slope QR = (1 + 2)/(3 + 7)

Slope QR = 3/10

Slope RS = (-9 - 1)/(6 - 3)

Slope RS = - 10/3

Slope QS = (-9 + 2)/(6 + 7)

Slope QS = -7/13

Thus, the slope of the each line segment of the given triangle QRS is found.
