Signman,
Look a it this way - we are aiming to get maximum sun capture. The shadow results from the panel intercepting the sunshine. So for maximum capture we need maximum shadow! The angle from the vertical will depend on latitude, time of day, and time of year. In Australia, anywhere south of the tropics the maximum shadow will always be larger than the panel size!
