What is the slope of the line that passes through the points (0,0) and (0,5)? Write your answer in simplest form.

there is no slope the answer is undefined

Step-by-step explanation:

the line in this case is a vertical line which would be an undefined line a horizontal line has a slope of zero.

the equation for slope is y^2-y^1/x^2-x^1

call the larger triangle abc

then the smaller triangle cde is similar to abc (all angles are equal, aaa).  

ab is the side that is 36, and we wish to find de, the side corresponding to ab

area_cde = area_abc - area_cde --> area_abc / area_cde = 2

let x=length of de

ratio of areas = (ratio of sides)^2
