Math Resources: Slope of a Line

Since this is a blog about Pain Free Homework site (www.painfreehomwork.com) I thought it'd be fitting to talk about a topic that causes many student's pain: Math. Hopefully, this will help alleviate your math homework pain!

I wanted to dedicate a post to a topic in math that just doesn't go away: The Slope of A line. It comes up in calculus, algebra and even, often, in geometry! At the bottom of the post, is a picture of the general formula from slope , and I wanted to list out the best resources (to my knowledge) for understanding slope of a line:

• Interactive Slope Applet -Great applet lets you drag 2 points around to explore how the slope formula works
• Slope of A line Tutorial - A great one stop place for understanding how slope works, includes power point style walk through, many examples, pictures
• Slope from Graph -
• Slope Formula Calculator -Type in two points and this baby'll do the rest!
• Slope Worksheet - free pdf with answer key on slope

If you know of other good resources on slope, let me know in the comments!
