How it works

The slope (m) of a line is calculated using the formula:

m = (y₂ - y₁)/(x₂ - x₁) = rise/run

Where:

  • rise = y₂ - y₁ (vertical change)
  • run = x₂ - x₁ (horizontal change)

The angle of inclination (θ) is calculated using:

θ = arctan(m)

Note: The angle is measured from the positive x-axis, counterclockwise.
