Slope of EF = 5/2
Slope of XY=4/3
Further explanation:
"Slope is the steepness of a line"
The formula for slope when two lines are given:
[tex]m=\frac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}[/tex]
Now,
1. E(2-1) and F(4,4)
[tex]m=\frac{4-(-1)}{4-2}\\ =\frac{4+1}{2}\\ =\frac{5}{2}[/tex]
2. X(1, 4) and Y(-2,0)
[tex]m=\frac{0-4}{-2-1}\\ =\frac{-4}{-3}\\ =\frac{4}{3}[/tex]
Hence,
Slope of EF = 5/2
Slope of XY=4/3
