Ohh napking math time ...
here is how I would do it.
we have 100 layers per mm so each layer we move up 0.01 mm, and standard .7mm laser spot size ... lets say we need to over lap the spot by 75 percent each layer to make sure the layers connect( this is very untested)
so every 4 layers we move .7 mm over and .04 mm up and Im feeling lazy so ill go here http://www.cleavebooks.co.uk/scol/calrtri.htm
I get 86.7 deg
wow our napkin math answers are very close quertz!
here is a pick of a rook printed with the standard v1 kit printer:

The rook has stairs that have rather flat tops:

With the flat tops lit just right from behind, and a macro lens we can see what appear to be layers!
seeing individual layers is very rare... sometimes we see artifacts that look like layers but are some other effect like break over. In most situations our layers are to small for the human eye to see:
