Elevation Grade Calculator

Compute grade, percent grade, and angle of elevation from rise and run. (No back-filling.)

Inputs

Vertical distance (rise)

Unit

Horizontal distance (run)

Unit

Tip: Use any units—rise and run are converted internally.

Results

Grade (ratio)

Grade in percentage

Angle of elevation

Angle unit

—

References: Standard slope/grade relations: grade = rise/run; percent grade = 100×(rise/run); angle = arctan(rise/run).
