There are many ways to find the angle of a slope.
One easy practical way to see if a slope is 10 degrees is to have a 1 metre long (1000 mm) straight edge and put one end on the slope surface while holding it horizontal with a spirit level. The "free" end will be 176 mm (176.327 mm) off the surface if the slope is 10 degrees.
(Tan 100 = 176 / 1000 to nearest round figures).

What is a inclined plane and example?
An example of an inclined plane is a ramp, slanted road, or a slide. An inclined plane is a surface that is at an angle against a horizontal surface.
How do you work unknown angles in geometry a major road is being built to cross park street and main street at a 60 degree angle Find the measures of each unknown angle?
The answer depends on which angles are unknown. But since you have not bothered to share that crucial bit of information, I cannot provide a more useful answer.
What is the angle o of inclination with a road grade of 4.5 percent?
For every 4.5 rise, the run is 100, hence tangent of the angle of inclination is (4.5/100) = 0.045. Now find out the angle whose tangent is 0.045 from a table or using a calculator. It turns out to be 2.576 degrees
How do I find the speed of a vehicle when all I know is the length of the skid marks 24.2 metres and the pavement was wet at this time with a very slight slope down?
To find the speed you would need to find the time taken to create the skid marks and then use the equations of motion. As the vehicle is skidding, the wheels are not turning so the braking force is the friction between the tyre and the road surface; this has to overcome the forward speed of the vehicle and the forward force of the weight of the vehicle along the road (as there is a downward slope). The forward force of the vehicle can be calculated by knowledge of the mass of the vehicle and the angle of the slope. The frictional force generated can be calculated from the coefficient of friction between the tyres and the road surface, and the mass of the vehicle. The road being wet will reduce the coefficient of friction of the road surface/tyre boundary compared to when the road surface is dry. It is easier, by experiment, to do a few test runs using a vehicle of similar mass under similar conditions to get how the vehicle is likely to have slowed down when it skidded, and extrapolate/interpolate to the given distance of 24.2 m.
Slight convex curve in surface of road?
Surely it must be the camber?
If friction is ignored what is the ramp required with to lift the road?
If friction is ignored, the ramp required to lift the road would be at a 45 degree angle. This is because at a 45 degree angle, the components of the gravitational force acting on the object perpendicular to the ramp would be equal to the force needed to lift the road.

Does tire width make a difference in mpg?
It will to a limited degree, but so will the road surface, the air pressure in the tire, your driving style and the weather - -

Why was the surface of a Roman road curved?
The surface of a Roman road was curved to make water run off.
What does a road always have?

Is a master's degree the best college degree?
The best degree is the one that leads to your overall career goals and objectives. You must find your vision (dream) first, then you will be able to create the appropriate road map that will make that vision a reality.
