use the 17" on your rafter square
The recommended method for calculating the length of a shed roof rafter is to use the Pythagorean theorem, which states that the square of the hypotenuse (longest side of a right triangle) is equal to the sum of the squares of the other two sides. This formula can help determine the length of the rafter based on the roof's pitch and the span of the shed.
