In Rhino you can start drawing a line, setting one endpoint, and then specify an angle in degrees by first typing in the angle like:
< 45 [ENTER]
…for 45-degrees. The line will snap to your angle.
You can use either a formula, or an online calculator such as this for converting the slope.

I don’t work with slopes, and rarely seem specified in mechanical contrivances, but in the context, they would seem a percentage of 90 degrees, but apparently, they are a percentage of 45 degrees?
The grade (also called slope, incline, gradient, mainfall, pitch or rise) of a physical feature, landform or constructed line refers to the tangent of the angle of that surface to the horizontal. It is a special case of the slope, where zero indicates horizontality. A larger number indicates higher or steeper degree of "tilt". Often slope is calculated as a ratio of "rise" to "run", or as a fraction ("rise over run") in which run is the horizontal distance (not the distance along the slope) and ...
In mathematics, the slope or gradient of a line is a number that describes both the direction and the steepness of the line. Slope is often denoted by the letter m; there is no clear answer to the question why the letter m is used for slope, but its earliest use in English appears in O'Brien (1844) who wrote the equation of a straight line as "y = mx + b" and it can also be found in Todhunter (1888) who wrote it as "y = mx + c".
Slope is calculated by finding the ratio of the "vertical change" t...
