To determine the height of one stair, the drawing or specifications usually provide the total rise (the total vertical height the stairs need to cover) and the number of stairs (or treads) being built. However, since the drawing is not provided in this case, I can suggest a common method to find the height of one stair:
1. **Identify Total Rise**: Find out how many inches or feet the stairs need to rise in total. This value is usually indicated in the drawings.
2. **Count the Number of Risers**: Determine how many individual steps (risers) are in the set of stairs.
3. **Calculate Height of One Stair (Riser Height)**:
- Use the formula:
\[
\text{Height of one stair} = \frac{\text{Total Rise}}{\text{Number of Risers}}
\]
If you have the total rise or any additional details from the drawing, please share that information so I can assist you further in calculating the height of one stair. Otherwise, none of the responses (144 in., 36 in., \(\sqrt{12}\) in., or 12 in.) can be determined as correct without additional context.
