Rise / Run = Slope

• Examples:
  • 4/12 slope = .33
  • 12/12 slope = 1
• Slope for this diagram
  • 20/20 = 1

Length of slope

• Pythagorean Theorem (Hypotenuse Theorem)
• A² + B² = C²
• √(A² + B²)= C
• √(20² + 20²) = 28.28

Sloped Areas:

• Area of slope = (hypotenuse) x ( Length/ Base)
• Area of slope = 28.28 x 36 = 1018.23
