If we discuss this as if it is a triangle then the "rise" is the vertical side and the "run" is the adjacent side.
So the ratio of the rise to the run is 8 / 15 which equals

To find the angle of this roof pitch we look up the arc tangent of

and we find that is 28.072 Degrees

Answer:
y = 0
Step-by-step explanation:
The line y = 0 is cutting your triangle in half with perfect symmetry.
Answer:
What is the best choice for the equation of the line of best fit shown?

There are 3 right triangles.
Long leg short leg hypotenuse
Large ? ? 32+18 = 50 m
Medium 32 m x ?
Small x 18 m ?
Similar triangles: small & medium
short leg / long leg
x/32 = 18/x
x*x = 18 * 32
x² = 576
√x² = √576
x = 24
Long leg short leg hypotenuse
Large ? → 40 m ? 32+18 = 50 m
Medium 32 m 24 m ? → 40 m
Small 24 m 18 m ? → 30 m
solve hypotenuse of medium and small using Pythagorean theorem.
32² + 24² = c²
1024 + 576 = c²
1600 = c²
√1600 = √c²
40 = c
24² + 18² = c²
576 + 324 = c²
900 = c²
√900 = √c²
30 = c
Solve for the long leg of the large right triangle using ratio and proportion
medium and large: long leg / hypotenuse
32/40 = x/50
32*50 = 40 * x
1600 = 40x
1600/40 = x
40 = x
