21mm lens will yield approx. an 80 degree angle of view, simple geometry will show the width of the base of that triangle that has a 10 foot height and 80 degree angle.

How about shooting the pic, view it on your camera's monitor and then put a tape measure along the wall? You could then transfer the result on to graph paper. By extending the distance and the diagonals you would have have a chart for any distance using the same set-up. :-)
