Slope is \(\huge\frac{ height }{ lenght }\)

A roof looks like a triangle. It slopes downwards on both sides.

OpenStudy (emmamink):

OpenStudy (confluxepic):

They calculate slope to see how high the roof will be and how long it is. Then they duplicate it on the other side to make a isosceles triangle. Different designs vary in shape.

OpenStudy (emmamink):

ok..finally an answer!!!

OpenStudy (emmamink):
