Harry is building a house with a sloping roof. If the roof is 44 feet long and 10 feet high, what is the angle that the roof makes with the horizontal?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

The problem can be viewed as a triangle, where Roof represents the hypotenuse, the height represents the opposite side and the horizontal represents the adjacent side. So the angle roof makes with horizontal is the sin value which is opposite/hypotenuse. Hope you got it!

The triangle is a right triangle*
