👉 Learn how to find the rate of change from graph. The rate of change is the rate at which y-values are changing with respect to the change in x-values. To determine the rate of change from a graph, a right triangle is drawn on the graph such that the line of the graph is the hypotenuse of the right triangle. Then the rate of change of the graph is given by the length of the vertical leg of the right triangle divided by the length of the horizontal leg of the right triangle.
