How it works
Find slope and intercept of a nonvertical line.
THE CALCULATIONslope = (y₂−y₁) / (x₂−x₁)
Using this calculator
Enter x₁, y₁, x₂, y₂. slope = (y₂−y₁) / (x₂−x₁).
What to keep in mind
Use the same length unit for all lengths. Areas use squared units and volumes use cubed units. Diagrams are not to scale; inputs must satisfy the shape’s geometry.
Frequently asked questions
Are my entries saved?

Why are results rounded?
The display is rounded for readability. Calculations use unrounded intermediate values. An estimate should not be interpreted as an exact measurement.
