Use the definition of tangent

or inv tangent (arctan or atan)

tan(theta) = opposite side/ adjacent side

the vertical rise would be the opposite side, the horozontal distance would be the adjacent side

let rise = y
let distance= x
x=2y

so tan(theta) = y/2y
tan(theta) = 1/2

theta = atan(1/2)

grab a handy dandy calculator, unless you know this conversion off the top of your head
