The 15 degree angle is 'approximate'. The important part is the that it is 1 foot high at the peak. We thought, perhaps wrongly, that it would be easier to approximate the 15 degrees than say 14.xxxx degrees. All you need is a little trig to calculate the actual angle.

If you still have questions, contact Frank Melanson at FIRST at 800-871-8326 x109 or at frankm@usfirst.org. He is the official contact for all field-related questions.
