1 3.2: Slope How steep?

2 Slope is the measure of steepness. Some hillsides are not steep. They are easy to climb. They have a small slope.

3 Slope is a measure of steepness. Other hillsides are very steep. They have a large slope. What makes this hillside steeper than the other? How would you make it easier to get to the top of the hill?

4 Slopes can be the same when measurements vary.

5 How do we define slope? Should we measure slope as ?

6 Definition of Slope
