sirfiroth Posted June 6, 2018 #1 Share Posted June 6, 2018 Hi All, Just curious whether anyone has determined the seked of G1's Grand Gallery? Ascending Passageway? If so, what are the evidentiary proofs? Regards, Jacob Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Regards, Jacob I googled and didn't get a hit, maybe add a little detail to the stone soup, just for flavor. jmccr8 Edited June 7, 2018 by jmccr8 #@&?ING phone 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kmt_sesh Posted June 7, 2018 #3 Share Posted June 7, 2018 I was in too much of a lazy mood to dig out my books that might have this information, so I turned to the internet. Take that as you will. The web page I found said the Grand Gallery is 14 seqed (26.5 degrees). Source It's someone's blog to boot, so I can't ensure absolute accuracy. It's a jumping-off point, if nothing else.

I've warned you about that. You don't know where those stones have been. 1 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I found similar information at <http://www.ronaldbirdsall.com/gizeh/petrie/c7.html#36> in sections 36, 38 and 46 for the angles for the interior passages of G1. Although Petrie does provide measured and estimated angles he says nothing about the seked values that establish these gradients.

Harte Posted June 7, 2018 #6 Share Posted June 7, 2018 (edited) Take the cotangent of the angle and convert it to a ratio of whole numbers. Or, you could use the angle's compliment, in which case the seked of the complementary angle is 7*tan(theta) where theta is the compliment of the angle you're looking for. This assumes you mean to know the seked of the angle measured from the ground upward. Harte Edited June 7, 2018 by Harte Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
