Can someone here explain to us what % gradient angle means please? I'm uncertain about this myself. Does it refer to % of the right angle or the horizontal distance? For instance, say an angle in the first quadrant has the horizontal distance of 1 meter and the height was say 5 cm, would this carachterize a 5% gradient angle?
Thank you (anyone) in advance for this clarification. Marcus On Thu, 6 Feb 2003 13:53:49 Joseph B.
