A 1 in 40 slope means that for every 40 units of horizontal distance, there is a 1 unit rise. To convert this to degrees, you can use the arctangent function. The formula to convert slope to degrees is arctan(slope) = angle in degrees. Therefore, for a 1 in 40 slope, the angle in degrees would be approximately 1.43 degrees.
