Which statement describes a Shed roof?

• A. A pitched roof that slopes in one direction only from the ridge
• B. A hip roof
• C. A flat roof
• D. A curved roof

Answer: (A)

A shed roof is a single-plane roof that slopes in one direction from a higher edge to a lower edge. The statement captures this by describing a roof that slopes in one direction from the high side, which is the defining characteristic of a mono-pitched shed roof. This style contrasts with roofs that have multiple slopes (like a hip roof), no slope (flat roof), or a curved surface, none of which match the single, one-direction slope of a shed roof.
