Find the slope of the given line, if it is defined. 2x + 1 = 0

Given :

A line 2x + 1 =0 .

To Find :

The slope of the given line .

Solution :

We know , slope of line is given by the tangent of the angle between the x-axis and the line .

Now, for line 2x + 1 =0 i.e .

The line is perpendicular to x-axis and cuts the x-axis at .

Therefore , the angle between the line and x-axis is .

So , slope i.e undefined .

Therefore , the slope of given line is not defined .

Hence , this is the required solution .

a reflection across the x-axis , followed by the by a reflection across the y-axis , and then a scale dilation of 0.5 .
