Hip Side Cut Angles at Peak of Hip Rafter
Juxtaposed Tetrahedra viewed from
Triangles representing upper shoulder of unbacked Hip Rafter

The triangles follow the plane of the upper shoulder of an unbacked Hip Rafter. This plane passes through a line perpendicular to the Hip Run, and the slope of the plane, measured from level, is equal to 25.54245°, the Hip Slope Angle. In other words, the Dihedral Angle between the plane containing the Hip Side Cut Angles and the plane following level is the Hip Slope Angle.
