This formula uses 4 Variables
Variables Used
Side slope of Trapezoidal Channel - Side slope of Trapezoidal Channel is side slope of trapezoidal channel, defined as horizontal to vertical ratio.
Width of Trap Channel - (Measured in Meter) - Width of Trap Channel is the width of the trapezoidal cross-section of the beam parallel to the axis in consideration.
Depth of Flow of Trapezoidal Channel - (Measured in Meter) - Depth of Flow of Trapezoidal Channel is the distance from the top or surface of the flow to the bottom of a channel or other waterway or Depth of Flow at the Vertical while measuring Sound Weights.
Hydraulic Depth of Trapezoidal Channel - (Measured in Meter) - Hydraulic Depth of Trapezoidal Channel is defined as depth which in contact with water.
STEP 1: Convert Input(s) to Base Unit
Width of Trap Channel: 3.8105 Meter --> 3.8105 Meter No Conversion Required
Depth of Flow of Trapezoidal Channel: 3.32 Meter --> 3.32 Meter No Conversion Required
Hydraulic Depth of Trapezoidal Channel: 2.47 Meter --> 2.47 Meter No Conversion Required
STEP 2: Evaluate Formula
Substituting Input Values in Formula
ztrap = (Btrap*df(trap)-Btrap*DTrap)/(2*DTrap*df(trap)-(df(trap))^2) --> (3.8105*3.32-3.8105*2.47)/(2*2.47*3.32-(3.32)^2)
Evaluating ... ...
ztrap = 0.602209764985869
STEP 3: Convert Result to Output's Unit
0.602209764985869 --> No Conversion Required
FINAL ANSWER
0.602209764985869 0.60221 <-- Side slope of Trapezoidal Channel
