Just a question that I should have the answer to, but due to using cheater tools for so long (digital levels and angle/miter finders)I’ve forgoten the basics.
Here’s the senario: A level bannister turns a 90 degree corner to continue up a short rake of 11 degrees (two stairs), then changes angles again to a steeper incline of 37 degrees (remainder of stairs). How is the miter between 11 and 37 found (what angle). Please answer question, THEN tell me how stupid I am.
