peer agreement (net): +1piched roof Explanation: A pitched roof is a roof that slopes downwards, typically in two parts at an angle from a central ridge, but sometimes in one part, from one edge to another. The ‘pitch’ of a roof is its vertical rise divided by its horizontal span and is a measure of its steepness. https://www.designingbuildings.co.uk/wiki/Pitched_roof single-pitched multiple pitched https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_roof_shapes#Roof_shape... -------------------------------------------------- Note added at 29 mins (2022-02-10 01:32:09 GMT) -------------------------------------------------- The ‘pitch’ of a roof is its vertical rise divided by its horizontal span and is a measure of its steepness. https://www.designingbuildings.co.uk/wiki/Pitched_roof -------------------------------------------------- Note added at 3 hrs (2022-02-10 04:20:29 GMT) Post-grading -------------------------------------------------- Typo in my answer: piched --> pitched -------------------------------------------------- Note added at 3 hrs (2022-02-10 04:22:03 GMT) Post-grading -------------------------------------------------- I edited the glossary entry.
