This math topic focuses on identifying the terms "Rise" and "Run" associated with calculating the slope of a line. It introduces and reinforces the fundamental concepts of slope by asking students to name the vertical and horizontal distances a line travels on a graph. The problems encourage understanding of these key vocabulary terms, pivotal in studying the nature of linear relationships in graphed data. This foundational knowledge is crucial for progressing in algebra and geometry related to linear equations.
