Framing a wall to screen in a deck
Hi everyone. I'm new here, and have a question.
I have a medium sized deck that I want to screen in. The existing roof over the deck is slightly angled. My question is: When I'm framing the walls, how do I determine the angle to cut the top of the studs to attach to my top plate? I am 100% new to any sort of carpentry (a family member is buying me a table saw for my birthday and I understand that they can make mitered cuts), so forgive me if this is a very elementary question.
Also of note, this wall will not be bearing any significant weight, just the screening material. I've attached a photo to hopefully give a better understanding of what I'm asking. The "studs" are colored red.
Thanks in advance!
