Formula for Converting Percentage Slope to Degrees
The formula for converting a percentage slope to degrees starts with converting percentage slope to radians, using the inverse tangent. Then, convert the radians to degrees:
slope\ in\ radians=arctan(slope\ in\ percentage) \\ \\
slope\ in\ degrees=slope\ in\ radians*\frac{180}{\pi}Using the Percentage Slope to Degrees Calculator
To use the percentage slope to degrees calculator, determine the percentage slope of the object you'd like to convert. This might be listed on a sign or marker for something like a road, railway (known as grade or percentage grade), or as a configurable setting on something like a treadmill. Then, click the Calculate Degrees button to complete the conversion.
