Very interesting, but much higher than the school math.

Not for this site.

This is similar to rotation-of-axes problems I have my students do in honors math analysis...
I can lend some expertise in that regard...the angle of rotation can be found via
cot (2*theta) = A-C / B where A = C = 1 and B = 2h
but the other tutor is right, this is beyond the level of this site...
