One characteristic of the line

is that all points on the line have exactly the same

coordinate, namely

. So when you try to calculate the slope using the slope formula:

where

and

are the coordinates of the given points.

you end up with zero in the denominator regardless of what points you choose for the calculation. The value of a rational expression with a zero denominator is undefined. So the slope is ...
