FALSE
its the tangent of the angle the slope makes with the x-axis
true or false ? perpendicular lines intersect at an angle of 45
supplementary angles
Step 1: Divide the percentage slope by 100. Step 2: Calculate arctan or tan-1 [=atan() in Excel] of that value to give the angle. Advanced mathematicians use radians to measure angles, and Excel calculates the angle in radians. However, if you need it in degrees, multiply the last answer by 180/pi. On most calculators you will need to ensure that angles are measured in degrees. Thus, if you have a 15% slope, step 1 gives 0.15 and step 2 gives an angle of 0.1489 radians, which is equal to 8.53 degrees (approx).
None of them.
Yes, they do. And this angle of repose will be different for different materials, the particle sizes and the moisture content.
The slope of any flowing surface like lava, ash, pebbles is called the "angle of repose."

Angel of repose is different from the angel of friction; however in a particular case it may be the same. Basically angle of repose is an engineering property of granular materials. It is the maximum angle of a stable slope determined by friction, cohesion and the shapes of the particles. When bulk granular materials are poured onto a horizontal surface, a conical pile will form. The internal angle between the surface of the pile and the horizontal surface is known as the angle of repose and is related to the density, surface area and shapes of the particles, and the coefficient of friction of the material. Material with a low angle of repose forms flatter piles than material with a high angle of repose. In other words, the angle of repose is the angle a pile forms with the ground. While angel of friction is the angle between the noemal force and athe resultant between tha normal force and friction force.
No
Most loose, not compacted, sands and silts have an angle of repose, measured from the horizontal, of 35 degrees.
FALSE
No slope is the angle at which a surface goes up or down.
Landslide slopes vary depending on the type of material, angle of repose (angle material or debris natural forms when stacked or piled), and the conditions in which the landslide may occur.
