How would you determine the steepness of a staircase? - Answers

Take corresponding points on two steps. The further apart these two points - the more steps between them - the more accurate the result will be. Measure the horizontal distance between the two points (x) and the difference in height (y). If theta represents the angle of inclination of the staircase, then tan(theta) = y/x is the measure of the slope or steepness of the staircase. To calculate the angle that the staircase makes with the floor, theta = arctan(y/x).
