The angle that Dana shows as 3 degrees, translates into 16 degrees on a protractor. I'm trying to find out why the discrepentcy. I already know from real world applications and other tech sources that 16 degrees is correct when using a protractor. I'm just trying to find a legitimate explanation as to why. Are there different ways to mathematicaly get 3 equals 16? Is there an equation here that translates degrees into percentage of slope?
