How steep a line is and which direction it's going
m=y2โy1x2โx1m = \frac{y_2 - y_1}{x_2 - x_1}m=x2โโx1โy2โโy1โโ
Vertical change divided by horizontal change
Lines that never meet, no matter how far extended
m1=m2m_1 = m_2m1โ=m2โ
Lines that meet at exactly 90 degrees (right angle)
m1รm2=โ1m_1 \times m_2 = -1m1โรm2โ=โ1
m2=โ1m1m_2 = -\frac{1}{m_1}m2โ=โm1โ1โ (negative reciprocal)
Same scale on both axes
