I have a line,

t=(0:30:30); % Defines t from 0 to 30 with interval of 30
x=-0.28*t.^2+6.5*t+61; % Creates array x
y=0.18*t.^2-8.5*t+65; % Creates array y
plot (x,y,'y') % Plots the two equations defined above

, and I need to find the angle from that line to the x axis. I can do this mathmatically on paper, but I don't know how to do this on matlab. I've been trying everything to find the angle, how do I go about solving this?

How would you do this with pen and paper?
