Assume this is a structure that I am building. And assuming that the image is turned correctly, all the vertical edges are perpendicular to the ground.

You are looking at a profile of 3 pieces of 2x4. ABCD will move slightly left and connect with the piece on the far left, and edge EF will connect with edge BC. ABCD will be a slightly sloped roof.

i think you need to know what angle you want this at before you can find any other angle.

Ya, I will figure out the slope later on. But I just want to know which angles, for the lack of a better word, match up with which angles
