    Lew. Roofing companies who do re-roofs use a tool that measures pitch on a roof. You lay it on the actual roof and it measurs the roof in "degrees" I believe. Try Home depot

    I have one of those and it works fine for roof pitch but it doesn't go into wall angles, the base needs to be moveable to fit the the wall angle.

    I understand the math, just prefer not to do it.
