Default How do I calculate the angle between two lines on a chart

I'm trying to calculate the angle between a Target Line and a Trend Line
(both are straight lines) on a chart. Any ideas as to how I would do this?
Thanks

SLOPE is a measure of the angle a line makes to the x-axis
So slope2-slope1 is proportional to the angle between two lines
Now do your homework
best wishes
