/* this is hard to explain. we want the angle of the back of the keycap.
* first we draw a line at the back of the keycap perpendicular to the ground.
* then we extend the line created by the slope of the keytop to that line
* the angle of the latter line off the ground is $top_tilt, and
* you can create a right triangle with the adjacent edge being $bottom_key_height/2
* raised up $total_depth. this gets you x, the component of the extended
* keytop slope line, and y, a component of the first perpendicular line.
* by a very similar triangle you get r and s, where x is the hypotenuse of that
* right triangle and the right angle is again against the first perpendicular line
* s is the opposite line in the right triangle required to find q, the angle
* of the back. if you subtract r from $total_depth plus y you can now use these
* two values in atan to find the angle of interest.
