Answer 1

2. How does the slope of the red triangle compare to the slope of the blue triangle? (1 point)
The slope of the blue triangle is twice the slope of the red triangle.
The slope of the red triangle is steeper than the slope of the blue triangle.
The slopes of the two triangles are the same.
The slope of the red triangle is half the slope of the blue triangle.

3. Would a triangle with a vertical length of 6 and a horizontal length of 10 have the same slope as the blue and red triangles shown in the graph? (1 point)
Yes, the slopes would be the same.
No, the slope of the new triangle would be 2 : 4.
No, the slope of the new triangle would be 2 : 5.
No, the slope of the new triangle would be 3 : 5.
