2. Grade (slope) - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Grade_(slope)

   [1] [2] as a ratio of one part rise to so many parts run. For example, a slope that has a rise of 5 feet for every 1000 feet of run would have a slope ratio of 1 in 200. (The word "in" is normally used rather than the mathematical ratio notation of "1:200".) This is generally the method used to describe railway grades in Australia and the UK.

3. Price elasticity of supply - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Price_elasticity_of_supply

   Thus, a supply curve with steeper slope (bigger dP/dQ and thus smaller dQ/dP) is less elastic, for given P and Q. Along a linear supply curve such as Q = a + b P the slope is constant (at 1/b) but the elasticity is b(P/Q), so the elasticity rises with greater P both from the direct effect and the increase in Q(P).

4. Theorem of three moments - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Theorem_of_three_moments

   The change in slope of a deflection curve between two points of a beam is equal to the area of the M/EI diagram between those two points.(Figure 02) Figure 02-Mohr's First Theorem Mohr's second theorem

5. Rake (theatre) - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rake_(theatre)

   A rake of one horizontal unit to one vertical unit (1 in 1, or a 100% slope) would give an angle of 45° from the horizontal. Rakes of 1 in 18 (5.56%) to 1 in 48 (2.08%) were more common. Converting the rake ratio to an angle requires the application of some basic trigonometry.

6. Free body diagram - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Free_body_diagram

   Block on a ramp and corresponding free body diagram of the block. In physics and engineering, a free body diagram ( FBD; also called a force diagram) [1] is a graphical illustration used to visualize the applied forces, moments, and resulting reactions on a body in a given condition. It depicts a body or connected bodies with all the applied ...

7. Simple linear regression - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Simple_linear_regression

   We can see that the slope (tangent of angle) of the regression line is the weighted average of (¯) (¯) that is the slope (tangent of angle) of the line that connects the i-th point to the average of all points, weighted by (¯) because the further the point is the more "important" it is, since small errors in its position will affect the ...
