Come with us and build a house with precise measurements.Help us solve for the right measurementsLet's Go!
We know that the angle of inclination between the wall and floor is 30 degrees. The inclined length is 25 ft. To calculate the height we will use sin = (30) x/25/.x/25.The height of the wall is 12.5 ft.
We need to determine the height of the wall for the house

We need to find the lenght of one side of the roof.
We could use trigonometry to find the lenght. The ceiling is 15ft long, while the angle of the ceiling to the roof is 35°. We should use cos 35 = 15/h, h = 15/cos 35. The lenght of the roof is 18.3ft

We need to measure the distance between two windows, lets use trigonometry.
If the side of the windows is 3ft high, and the angle of the top of one window to the bottom of the other is 20°, then we use tan 20 = o/3, o = 3 • tan 20. The distance between the two windows is 6.7ft
