look at red segments

ganeshie8 · Answer

the horizontal segment is taking 3 grids

ganeshie8 · Answer

can u tellme how many grids the vertical segment is taking ?

anonymous · Answer

2

ganeshie8 · Answer

yes, so the ratio of vertical length to horizontal length is :

2 : 3

anonymous · Answer

can you help me with a question that goes along with it?

ganeshie8 · Answer

shoot

anonymous · Answer

okay,
how does the slope of the red triangle compare to the slope of the blue triangle?

a. the slope of the blue triangle is twice the slope of the red triangle.

b. the slope of the red triangle is steeper than the slope of the blue triangle.

c. the slope of the two triangles are the same.

d. the slope of the red triangle is half the slope of the blue triangle.

ganeshie8 · Answer

u knw how to calculate slope right ?

ganeshie8 · Answer

slope = vertical length / horizontal length

ganeshie8 · Answer

so, slope of red triangle = 2 : 3

ganeshie8 · Answer

can  u find slope of blue triangle ha ?

ganeshie8 · Answer

look at the graph, 
wats the length of "vertical blue segment" ?
wats the length of "horizontal blue segment" ?
