Step 3 · Calculate the stair angle
With the total rise and total run values obtained, use the arctangent (or inverse tangent) function to calculate the angle of the staircase. The formula is: Angle = arctan(Total Rise / Total Run). You can use a scientific calculator or a spreadsheet program for this calculation. The result will be in degrees.
