Is the shade built as a 'right angle' triangle' with one angle at 90º?

No, I don't believe it is a true/full 90 degrees. It works great though. We bought 2 and love them. Much more expensive elsewhere under different names.

Yes it is. It is important to lay out how you will hang the shade before you actually do because of the right angle shape.

No. None of the corners make a right angle. It is closer to an equilateral, but not exactly that either.

The shade is not flat. It's like a pyramid with a flat top. There is enough space in the shade for a regular 100 watt bulb.

One shade, not too sturdy but good if you don't need to raise and lower it frequently. It looks fine and is easy to trim.

The way I have my lamp set, it's about 36" from the vertical to the center of the shade.

For maximum performance the panel should be tilted from straight up vertical toward the south by your angle of latitude (approximately 30 degrees in the south to 48 degrees in the north). Since roofs are rarely at the correct angle, you will need to compensate by making some custom brackets. I used 1 inch aluminum tubing flattened on the ends and 1/8 x 1 inch aluminum strap available at Lowes or Home Depot. Four brackets are needed with 1/4 inch screws and bolts.

Hi Janice, You will need to put the shade on at an angle with the smaller circle on the facing the ceiling.

No I don't believe so. I'd think it would look odd with the top rod being wider than the shade.

I really wouldn't know, mine is on the shade side because I was worried about the plastic going brittle.

Yes, but need a little modification. You have to screw in this shade permanently.

There is some adjustability. I am not sure how much. Ours wasn't 90 degrees, but my husband managed to install it, and it works great.

Yes, but it does not hold up very well in strong winds. Additionally, our shade came with a couple of parts missing in the assembly hardware that they send to you.

I don't have an answer to your question regarding measurements, as I gave the shade away. I purchased this shade to fill in a corner thinking it had a 90 degree angle. it is an equilateral triangle meaning all sides are the same measurement and all angles are 60 degrees. If you are thinking of putting this into a corner to provide shade it will not work.

It is all one piece construction. The central "stem" is no more than 1" in diameter, allowing the shade to be placed over very narrow vessels such as wine bottles or small vases.

Yes it does. It also tilts to one side for afternoon or morning shade. It works very well and is made to last.

I would say it is capable of bending to 90 degrees. However, it will take tremendous amount of effort to do so and it will be dangerous

I have mine mounted straight but when I cover my boat I angle it down, I can't say an exact 90 degrees but would venture to say close to it.

Yes, with the angle as measured from the sprinkler being 15 degrees or any multiple thereof. The far side of the triangle may be curved (convex) rather than straight, depending on the width of the triangle and the distance settings you make.
