Find the slope of the line containing the given pair of points. If the line undefine, state so.
(2,0)(2,6)

The x coordinates are equal. So this is a vertical line which means that the slope is undefined.

Use this formula to find the slope.

$$y _{2} - y _{1}\

(over)

x _{2} - x _{1}$$

So it's in (x, y) form.

6 - 0
-----
2 - 2

Slope = 6 over 0

The denominator is 0 which will give you a undefined slope since you are only going up 6 and no turn/direction is possible.
