Question

Find the slope of the line whose inclination is 90o.

Open in App
Solution

We know that if θ is the inclination of a straight line, then tanθ is called the slope (or gradient) of a line. The slope of a line is usually denoted by m.

Here, it is given that θ=900, therefore, the slope of the line is:

m=tan900= Not defined

Hence, the slope of the line is not defined.
