Slope is rise over run.
Vertical change/horizontal change
4/3 is the slope

altavistard

If the vertical (opposite) side is 4 and the horiz. (adjacent) side is 3, then the slope of the acute angle near the horiz. side is just (4/3).

You might benefit from sketching this situation.  
What if the vert. side were 3 and the horiz. side were 4?  What would the slope of the hypotenuse be?
