Home/Math/Slope Calculator (Two Points)

Slope Calculator

Enter the coordinates of two points and get the slope of the line through them, along with its full equation, angle, and y-intercept. Slope measures how steep a line is, defined as the change in y divided by the change in x, often described as rise over run. It is a cornerstone of algebra, physics, and any field dealing with rates of change. This calculator returns the slope as a decimal, builds the slope-intercept equation y equals mx plus b, reports the angle the line makes with the horizontal in degrees, and handles the special cases of horizontal and vertical lines cleanly. Just type the x and y values for both points and every result appears at once. Everything is computed locally in your browser, so it is instant and none of your coordinates leave your device.

How to use Slope Calculator (Two Points)

  1. Enter the coordinates of the first point.
  2. Enter the coordinates of the second point.
  3. Read the slope, line equation, angle and y-intercept.

Frequently asked questions

How is slope calculated from two points?

Slope is the change in y divided by the change in x, often called rise over run, between the two points you enter.

What does the line equation show?

The tool gives the equation in slope-intercept form, y equals m x plus b, using the slope and y-intercept it finds.

What does the angle in degrees mean?

It is the angle the line makes with the horizontal x-axis, found from the arctangent of the slope.
