What's the formula (in inches) for rise per degree?

Hope this old chart I have helps
Here are a couple of formulas I also had stashed.
Rise = Inches x Tang. X° or Rise = Inches/Cotangent X°

I tell my guys who don't have a good handle on trig identities to use this right triangle solver.

I seem to remember it is .017" of rise per inch, per degree?

It would completely depend on your length that you are referencing. As your length increasing, you height increases more per degree.

Found it, I was close.

miracle point (angle-pitch) 2 degrees =.035 per inch .035x20= .7inch, 4 degrees =.07 per inch .07x20=1.4 inch
1 degree angle = .0175 pitch per inch or .210 inch per foot
