Inside the
attic, look up and you may be able to tell is you have a ridge vent.
You ought to see a space between the roof decking sheets at the top of
the trusses.


Here is what it looks like looking straight up in the same attic:

I don't see *any* vents there.

Here's a closer view looking straight up in that same attic:

Am I missing that space between at the top of the trusses?

Looks like you have no ridge vent. To install one, it would require
tile to be removed from the roof, decking cut and a ridge vent
installed.

Looks like a gable vent fan is your best choice - at the gable vent.

You have power at the light to run it.
