The WH Slant Line of Cut Cuboid is the distance of the slant line measured between the width and height of cut off edge of Cut Cuboid. It represents the diagonal distance across the cut surface where width and height dimensions meet.
The calculator uses the formula:
Where:
Explanation: This formula applies the Pythagorean theorem to calculate the diagonal distance between the height difference and missing width dimensions.
Details: Calculating the WH slant line is crucial for understanding the geometry of cut cuboids, determining surface areas, and for various engineering and architectural applications involving truncated rectangular prisms.
Tips: Enter all dimensions in meters. Height must be greater than residual height. All values must be positive numbers.
Q1: What units should I use for the inputs?
A: The calculator uses meters for all dimensions. Make sure all measurements are in consistent units.
Q2: Can the residual height be equal to the total height?
A: No, the residual height must be less than the total height for a valid cut cuboid geometry.
Q3: What if the missing width is zero?
A: If missing width is zero, the WH slant line equals the height difference between total and residual height.
Q4: How accurate is this calculation?
A: The calculation is mathematically exact based on the Pythagorean theorem, assuming precise input measurements.
Q5: Can this formula be used for other types of cuts?
A: This specific formula applies to straight cuts where the cutting plane is perpendicular to both width and height dimensions.
