23.5 degrees from the perpendicular.
The earth axis's tilt is 23.5 degrees.
23.44°
The revolution of the earth defines its tilt. The "tilt" is the angle between the axis of rotation of the earth and the axis of its revolution around the sun. Both these axes must exist to define the tilt. If the earth did not rotate on an axis of its own, or if it did not revolve around the sun, it would be meaningless to speak of a tilt.
It probably wouldn't be habitable, if the Earth's axial "tilt" were 90 degrees.
23.5 degrees
Tilt is the world you're looking for. "Angle the rotational axis makes with the perpendicular to the ecliptic plane" would be more accurate.
23.44
It is about 23.5 degrees
It is about 23.5 degrees
Mercury's axis tilt is 0°. Venus' axis tilt is 177.4°. Earth's axis tilt is 23.5°. Mars' axis tilt is 25.2°. Jupiter's axis tilt is 3.1°. Saturn's axis tilt is 25.3°. Uranus' axis tilt is 97.8°. Neptune's axis tilt is 28.8°. Pluto's axis tilt is 122.5°.
Mars has a very similar angle of axial tilt to Earth.
In degrees it is the approximate tilt of the Earth's axis in 3 significant figures
I think the question should be "what is the angle..." The tilt of Earth's axis is about 23.5°. This is the angle between Earth's axis and a line that is vertical to the Ecliptic (the plane in which Earth orbits the Sun).
the angle of the earth's axis
If you mean the" tilt" of the Earth's axis, it's about 23.5 degrees from the perpendicular to the Earth's orbit.
Mars is tilted at 25.19°, which is pretty close (slightly greater) than earth's 23.44° tilt. That "tilt" is the angle between the axis of rotation and the line perpendicular to the plane of the planet's orbit.
The tilt of the Earth's axis is why there are seasons. =)
