Slope to Degrees Calculator

Input either the slope (rise/run) or angle in degrees, and this calculator will compute the missing value using trigonometric functions.

The Slope to Degrees Calculator allows you to convert a given slope ratio into an angle in degrees, or vice versa. This tool is widely used in construction, geometry, and engineering to determine the angle of inclination or steepness.

Formula

1. Degrees Calculation:

   $$\text{Degrees} = \arctan(\text{Slope}) \times \left(\frac{180}{\pi}\right)$$

2. Slope Calculation:

   $$\text{Slope} = \tan\left(\text{Degrees} \times \frac{\pi}{180}\right)$$
