About this slope calculator

Slope is rise over run: m = (y₂ − y₁) ÷ (x₂ − x₁). Through (1, 2) and (4, 8) the slope is 6 ÷ 3 = 2 and the line is y = 2x. The calculator also gives the y-intercept, the angle of the line, the distance between the points and the midpoint; a vertical line has undefined slope.

FAQ

Common questions

Short answers for the questions people usually have before trying a utility like this.

What is the slope formula?

m = (y₂ − y₁) / (x₂ − x₁), the change in y divided by the change in x between two points.

How do I get the equation of the line?

With the slope m, solve b = y₁ − m × x₁ and write y = mx + b. For (1, 2) and slope 2, b = 0, so y = 2x.
