The pitcher's mound is 10 inches off the ground when compared to home plate. The distance between the pitcher's mound and home plate is 60 feet, 6 inches or 726 inches.
We can use these to formulate a triangle where the triangle's base is 726 inches and its height is 10 inches, with an unknown hypotenuse length. We assume the triangle to be a right triangle at the pitcher's mound on the ground, and an angle of elevation (a) at home plate.
Using the Pythagorean theorem, we find that the length of this triangle's hypotenuse is 726.06886 inches, and using the law of sines, we find that the angle of elevation of the pitcher's mound from home plate is 0.78914 degrees.
No - it makes it easier - as the slope is less steep.
