Deadrise is the angle that the hull makes in relation to the water. The sharper the angle the better the boat will ride in a sea. The trade off is that if the angle is too sharp the boat will roll severly in a beam sea. The angle of the chines will affect how sharply a boat will roll in a beam sea, the closer to 90 degrees that the chines ride in relation tot he water the less the boat will roll. Any more than thet gets us into Marine architecture.
