To find the angle of the slope of a line passing through two given points, we first need to calculate the slope of the line. The slope (\(m\)) is defined as the change in the y-coordinates divided by the change in the x-coordinates. Once we have the slope, we can find the angle (\(\theta\)) using the relationship \(m = \tan(\theta)\).
Correct Option: A) 45° is the angle of the slope of the line.
