var angle = (int) (Math.Atan2(-deltaY, deltaX) * 180 / Math.PI);

It's calculated in pixels in current chart scale. If you want to do it in cAlgo API, it's impossible because we do not operate with pixels there.

Hmm, my question is if I use price as deltaY and time period as deltaX would I be calculating the correct angle using that formula?

No. (-deltaY, deltaX) are window coordinates. If you set the ray and then modify the chart scale alone the angle value will change.
