Slope of demand curve will be infinity when degree of price elasticity

1.	Slope of demand curve will be infinity when degree of price elasticity of demand is infintiy. Defend or Refute.
Answer» Solution :The statement is REFUTED. `P.e_(D) = P/Qxx(DeltaQ)/(DeltaP)` and slope of demand curve = `(DeltaP)/(DeltaQ)` `P.e_(D)= P/Qxx 1/("Slope of DD curve")` or Slope of demand curve = ` P/Qxx1/(P.e_(D)` when `P.e_(D)=OO` Then slope of demand curve = `P/Qxx 1/oo= ` Zero when `P.e_(D) is oo` , slope of demand curve will be zero.
