Write the project algebraically, showing the equation and the work used to achieve the answer.
Building contractor- a contractor goes to the lumber yard to purchase trusses ( the triangle frames) for the roof of a house. Many sizes are available, so the contractor takes some measurements to ensure the roof will have a desired slope. In one case, the height of the trusss ( base to ridge) was 4 feet with a width of 24 feet ( eave to eave)
a. find the slope of the roof ( left side) if the trusses are used.. show work
equation used-
slope of the roof-
b. What does the slope indicate? Explain
