Hi all ...
Now strangely they have the slope listed as 32.494 degrees ... shall we check their work ?
1/2 side / height = tan of the angle 366.6 / 233.5 = 1.57002 NOW WHAT DO WE HAVE HERE ?
1.57002 as most of you should immediate recognize is 1/2 Pi as 1.57002 x 2 = 3.14004. I wonder why they failed to mention that ? Meanwhile 1.57002 is tan of 57.50555 and gives us 32.494 which is what they did put down ... but why would they ignore the Pi connection ? Also 733.2 / 233.5 = 3.14004. Meanwhile I have no idea what is meant by: " ... Base perimeter 794.79 square meters or 8,555.0 square feet ..." aw ... maybe it is the size of the flat platform at the top ... seems to make sense ... as 1 square meter = 10.76387 square feet and would make the top of the platform about 92 feet square ...
