Slope Worksheets

The slope (or gradient) of a line is a number that denotes the 'steepness' of the line, also commonly called 'rise over run'. Knowledge of relevant formulae is a must for students of grade 6 through high school to solve some of these pdf worksheets. This page consists of printable exercises like introduction to slopes such as identifying the type and counting the rise and run; finding the slope using ratio method, slope-intercept formula and two-point formula; drawing lines through coordinates and much more! Employ our free worksheets to sample our work. Answer keys are included.
