How to convert the Percentage Slope to Degrees?

Calculate the inverse tangent of the percentage number divided by 100 and multiply it by 180 / π.

Degrees (angle) = ATAN(percentage / 100) * 180 / π

Example

Convert the 30% slope to the angle in degrees.

Degrees (angle) = ATAN(30 / 100) * 180 / π

Degrees (angle) ≈ ATAN(0.3) * 180 / 3.14

Degrees (angle) ≈ 0.29 * 180 / 3.14

Degrees (angle) ≈ 16.62

Note that results may slightly vary depending on the rounding, including the precision of PI.
