Get the angle (in degrees or radians) between two points
Raw
get-angles.js
let pointOne = {
x: 20,
y: 20,
}
let pointTwo = {
x: 40,
y: 40,
}
// Get angle in Radians
const angleRadians = Math.atan2(pointTwo.y - pointOne.y, pointTwo.x - pointOne.x)
// Get angle in degrees
const angleDeg = Math.atan2(pointTwo.y - pointOne.y, pointTwo.x - pointOne.x) * 180 / Math.PI
