Slopes for the Mathematically Inclined

For this slope worksheet, 9th graders solve and complete 6 different problems that include completing charts and applying applications to the real world. First, they use the pictures shown to measure the riser and tread of 3 consecutive steps, completing the slope of each step. Then, students use the pictures on page 2 to put two points on a ramp and draw a right triangle by constructing rise and run.
