Slopes in Real Life
Zero (Horizontal) SlopeThe sunset on the horizon is an example of a zero slope because it goes horizontally.
This picture represents a zero slope because it’s a bridge going horizontally.
Zero (Horizontally) Slope
These books represents a zero slope because these books are aligned horizontally so they have a zero slope.
This tree branch has a zero slope because it’s growing horizontally.
Zero (Horizontal) Slope
The picture of the wire is the last example of zero slopes because the wire runs side to side or horizontally.
Undefined (vertical) Slope
The Twin Towers went vertically. An undefined slope goes up and down and that’s how these buildings are built.
Most lamp posts go vertically and that’s how undefined slopes are. This is an example because lamp post stand straight.
Undefined (vertical) Slope
This picture represents an undefined slope because grass goes straight up vertically, just like an undefined slope.
A rocket goes straight up during launch. An undefined slope goes vertical also.
Undefined (vertical) Slope
This french fry is going up and down. This is an example of an undefined slope because they both go vertically.
Positive Slope
The mountain is a representation of a positive slope because the left side is going up or increasing.
In this picture, the roller coaster is increasing and going upwards just like a positive slope.
Positive Slope
The Great Pyramids of Egypt is a good example because since it’s a triangle, on one side it’s a positive slope.
This picture of a flight of stairs is a good representation because the stairs are going upwards and increasing.
Positive Slope
The picture of the circus tent is a good example because the slope of the circus tent matches a positive slope.
Negative SlopeThis picture represents a negative slope because the left side is going towards the negative quardinant.
The X is an example of a negative slope because on one side, the line is going downwards.
Negative Slope
This picture represents a negative slope because these people are aligned to where when looking at them left to right, they’re going downwards.
This rainbow is an example of negatives slopes because the rainbow can be seen going down when looked at left to right.
Negative Slope
This picture of the glacier mountain represents a negative slope because this mountain is going down.
Steeper SlopeThe Eiffel Tower has a long steep drop on it. Although it’s not straight so this falls under a steep slope.
The christmas tree shows a deep drop making it a steeper slope.
Steeper Slope
This heel has a slope. Its very high but at the same time still tilted.
These knifes have curves on the blades. They are so steep that they look straight, but aren’t. This makes them steeper slopes.
Steeper Slope
This stick of bamboo is a steeper slope because its barely tilted but not straight.
Flatter Slope
This picture of a jet’s path represents a flatter slope because its going horizontally except with a tilt.
This human see-saw is a representation of a flat slope because the giant board is straight but with a tilt.
Flatter Slope
This saw has a flat slope that’s not quite flat but with a tilt.
This picture of a fork shows a flatter slope because at the handle a fork is straight, then starts to lift.
Flatter Slope
This carrot has a slant at its edge. Since it’s not straight, this carrot has a flatter slope or is an example of one.
Definition of Slope• to have or take an inclined or oblique direction
or angle considered with reference to a vertical or horizontal plane; slant
