Explanation:

Step1: Recall slope formula

The slope $m$ of a line is given by $m=\frac{\text{rise}}{\text{run}}$. In the context of a right - triangle representing a slope, the vertical side is the rise and the horizontal side is the run.

Step2: Identify rise and run

The vertical side (rise) of the triangle is 9 and the horizontal side (run) is 5.

Step3: Calculate slope

Using the formula $m = \frac{\text{rise}}{\text{run}}$, we substitute rise = 9 and run = 5, so $m=\frac{9}{5}$.

Answer:

A. $\frac{9}{5}$
