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 <span> <span> <span> 0.5333333333 </span> </span> </span>
To find the angle of this roof pitch we look up the arc tangent of <span> <span> <span> 0.5333333333  </span> </span> </span> and we find that is 28.072 Degrees
