  2. Grade (slope) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Grade_(slope)

    But in practice the usual way to calculate slope is to measure the distance along the slope and the vertical rise, and calculate the horizontal run from that, in order to calculate the grade (100% × rise/run) or standard slope (rise/run). When the angle of inclination is small, using the slope length rather than the horizontal displacement (i ...

  3. Roof pitch - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Roof_pitch

    The pitch of a roof is its vertical 'rise' over its horizontal 'run’ (i.e. its span), also known as its 'slope'. In the imperial measurement systems, "pitch" is usually expressed with the rise first and run second (in the US, run is held to number 12; [1] e.g., 3:12, 4:12, 5:12). In metric systems either the angle in degrees or rise per unit ...

    Slope illustrated for y = (3/2)x − 1.Click on to enlarge Slope of a line in coordinates system, from f(x) = −12x + 2 to f(x) = 12x + 2. The slope of a line in the plane containing the x and y axes is generally represented by the letter m, [5] and is defined as the change in the y coordinate divided by the corresponding change in the x coordinate, between two distinct points on the line.

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Calculator_Here_We_GO!

    In 1985, CI launched a calculator for the construction industry called the Construction Master [49] which came preprogrammed with common construction calculations (such as angles, stairs, roofing math, pitch, rise, run, and feet-inch fraction conversions). This would be the first in a line of construction related calculators.

  8. Seked - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Seked

    The seked is proportional to the reciprocal of our modern measure of slope or gradient, and to the cotangent of the angle of elevation. [2] Specifically, if s is the seked, m the slope (rise over run), and ϕ {\displaystyle \phi } the angle of elevation from horizontal, then:
