A quality control technician is using a coordinate grid to verify the slope of a structural beam that passes through the point (1, -1) with a slope of 3/4. After plotting the line, the technician identifies a right triangle formed by the points (1, -1), (1, 2), and (5, 2) to visually confirm the work. In this procedure, what do the vertical and horizontal legs of this right triangle represent?

A logistics coordinator is mapping a delivery route on a coordinate grid. The route starts at a warehouse located at (1, -1) and follows a slope of 3/4. Arrange the steps in the correct order to graph this line using the point-and-slope procedure.
A construction surveyor is marking a drainage line on a blueprint. The line passes through the point (1, -1) and has a slope of 3/4. To locate the next point on the blueprint using the point-slope method, which values correctly represent the 'rise' and 'run' derived from the slope?
A surveyor is mapping a gradient for a construction project. The line of the gradient passes through the point and has a constant slope of $3/4$. Match each graphing component to its correct value or coordinate based on the point-and-slope procedure described for this line.
An urban planner is marking a new utility line on a coordinate grid. The line passes through the point (1, -1) and has a slope of 3/4. True or False: According to the point-slope procedure, the second point on the line found by applying the rise and run from the starting point is (5, 2).
