This needs use of trigonometry.

A pitch of 7.5/12 = 0.625

This means that the tangent of the angle is 0.625

Using trig tables or calculator, find the angle whose tangent is 0.625

The answer is 32 degrees

How do you calculate a roof pitch of 6 degrees?

A roof angle of 6 degrees = 1.26 / 12 rise or pitch.


Question poised to me by contractor. What pitch is your roof My answer was that it rises at a 25 degree angle. What is the pitch in his terms?

If I remember right it should be between a 5 and 6 pitch. Between a 5/12 pitch and 6/12 pitch. If it was 27.5 degrees it would be a 6/12 pitch. Enter in "roof pitch" in the Google bar and several sites will come up where you can calculate pitch. The 12 means 12 inches. So that it would be aproximitely 6 inches rise to 12 inches of run. Hope this helps and I hope I remember my roof pitch angles. It has been a few years since I have done it.


What is the historically correct pitch for a colonial roof?

12/12 pitch This can also be referred to as 45 Degrees, but Pitch is a common term that is reported in parts per 12. 1/12 is very shallow, and 24/12 is straight up like a flagpole. So, 12/12 is half way, or 45 Degrees.


Calculate pitch of roof?

Roof pitch is rise and run. So if you have a 4/12 pitch, for every foot of run the roof rises 4 inches.

How do you know if the pitch of a roof is 10 or 12?

A 12/12 is 45 degrees. If you set a 45 degree piece of wood on the roof it should be level.


Can a roof have a 8 by 12 pitch roof?

Yes, it can have any pitch, the pitch is the ratio of the number of units (usually inches) run (horizontal) to the number of units rise (vertical). The units of run is always 12 therefor if you measure over 12 inches then measure up at 90° that number represents the pitch. If you measure over 12 inches and measure up 8 you have an 8/12 pitch roof.


How do you measure the pitch on a roof?

Roof pitch is measured in "rise over run". In other words, how many inches does the roof rise vertically in 12" of horizontal run. If a roof rises 4" in 12" of run, you have a 4/12 roof pitch.


How do you find roof pitch?

Roof pitch is measured in "rise over run". In other words, how many inches does the roof rise vertically in 12" of horizontal run. If a roof rises 4" in 12" of run, you have a 4/12 roof pitch.
