For a grid of rotating hot stars the computed line widths at the half maximum depth for the lines HeI λ 4471 and MgII λ 4481 are given. Based on the correspondent observational data the inclination of the rotational axes i and the reduced rotational velocity w have been found for 19 B and Be stars.
