First, we need to know the formula for the slope of the roof. The formula is the following
 Pitch= Rise / Run
Slope of the roof is referred to the ratio of the vertical measurement which is the rise to horizontal measurement which is the run. Using the given above let's find the pitch of the roof.

Given:  Rise= 8 ft    Run= 12 ft

Slope = Rise/Run
          = 8 ft / 12 ft 
          = 0.67 ft or 8.04 inches

The slope is 0.67 ft or 8.04 inches.

The pitch (slope) of a roof of a home rises vertically a distance of 8 ft through a horizontal distance of 12 ft is 0.67.

Given the following data:

  • Vertical distance (rise) = 8 feet
  • Horizontal distance (running) = 12 feet

To find the pitch (slope) of the roof, we would use the following formula:

Slope is the ratio of the vertical distance measured to the horizontal distance measured.

Mathematically, the pitch (slope) of a roof is given by the formula:

[tex]Pitch = \frac{V}{H}[/tex]

Where:

  • V is the rising vertical distance of an object.
  • H is the horizontal distance an object runs through.

Substituting the given parameters into the formula, we have;

[tex]Pitch\; (slope)= \frac{8}{12}\\\\Pitch\; (slope)= \frac{2}{3}[/tex]

Pitch (slope) = 0.67
