I need to create a formula but im not sure how to do it with the infor given

So my inital problem is that I need to use an array of tables which imported into matlab, however I need to use the length and the height of a ramp to determine the angle measurement of the ramp, and by doing this i need to create a funcution that accepts the Height and length as inputs and outputs the results. If anyone could help guide me through this, please feel free to answer with a couple of tips.

the parts scribbled out is the parts ive already completed. I dont really need so much help on 5-6 but i do need help on 3 through 4.

A simple function template:

function theresult = myfunctionname(argument1,argument2)
% the first contiguous block of commented lines is treated as
% the synopsis and constitutes the text returned when you 
% call help on your function.  

    theresult = %... (some trig)
end

look up atan2d and atand

You are given input information that is height and hypotenuse length, and you are asked to find angle.

sin(theta) = opposite / hypotenuse
cos(theta) = adjacent / hypotenuse
tan(theta) = opposite / adjacent

Length of the ramp is hypotenuse, height of the ramp is... which, opposite or adjacent?

If you had both right hand side values of one of those lines, how would you calculate the angle ?

I do I just didnt know how i would incorperate that into an equation, thank you for the help I hope it works fingers crossed

output = ArchTrigFunction(A./B)

with appropriate A, B, ArchTrigFunction
