Note:
is the first point
. So this means that and .
Also,
is the second point
. So this means that and .
Start with the slope formula.
Plug in , , , and
Subtract from to get
Subtract from to get
Reduce
So the slope of the line that goes through the points
and
is
The angle of inclination is
theta = arctan(rise/run)
theta = arctan(3/1) ... note: make the rise positive
theta = 71.56505
So the angle of inclination is roughly 71.56505 degrees
