This Problem Set is a part of the Lesson 16, Unit 4, Grade 8. Students use similar triangles to explain why the slope is the same between any two distinct points on a non-vertical line in the coordinate plane. Students use the slope formula to compute the slope of a non-vertical line. The goal is for students to know that these are references to the same thing with respect to the graph of a line.
