The face slope is ~51.8°. The corner walks the half-diagonal and rises near 42°.
Egypt
One land. Several 42s.
See one 42. Ask another question. Spell 125 does not print a map of the nomes. El-Kemaly 2021: the judges’ places mix towns with sky and cavern. The Dendera wall does join the later nomes to the body of Osiris. Clement’s forty-two books are a Greek report of a library, not a recovered Egyptian shelf. Cipher on the English word NOMES is later still. One land. Several rooms. One temple walk that actually names the join.

~42°Arrishere
The corner edge. Not the face.
What it supports
A geometric identity on Khufu’s nominal dimensions: arctan(h√2 / a) ≈ 42°. The Book’s natural plate already names the edge, not the face.
What it does not
Not the casing-face slope. Not a sealed 41°59′ until the exact restoration dimensions are cited. Not a rainbow.
Calculation
arctan(h√2 / a) with h/a ≈ 2/π ≈ 0.637 → ≈ 42°
Arris elevation from base-corner to apex; face slope is a different angle
