line angle

Dumb question but in a sketch, seeing as the rotate command isn't here yet, how do I draw a line that is say 45degrees (or whatever degrees) from vertical or constrain the angle or do a properties enquiry (look at the properties of a line to know the angle)?

I dimensioned the line to the Right plane to give it a 45 degree angle from 'vertical' without using construction geometry. I also added a driven dimension to the top plane. As you change the driving dimension the other value will update.
