A successful ski lift relies on an understanding of distance, midpoints and gradients. This resource takes a mathematical look at finding these for any given interval. ExploreRecall how to plot points on the xy-axis. This Geogebra applet allows you to visualise what different gradients look like and how to calculate the gradient of a line. To practice calculating gradient try this online quiz. Why are roofs in snowy areas steep? |
