Slope Calculator

Find the slope between two points.

Slope (m) 2
Angle (°) 63.435

Formula: m = (y₂ − y₁) ÷ (x₂ − x₁)

Step-by-step with your numbers:
1. Values used:
2. x₁ = 1
3. y₁ = 2
4. x₂ = 4
5. y₂ = 8
6.
7. Slope (m) = x₁ x y₁ = 1 x 2 = 2
8. Angle = 63.435°
Did we solve your problem today?

The steepness of a line between two points.

The math behind it

slope = rise ÷ run = (y₂ − y₁) ÷ (x₂ − x₁).

Worked example

(1,2) to (4,8) → slope 2.
