The purpose of knowing the angle of elevation and depression in relation to the field of surveyor, military/police, aeronautics (pilot), engineers, landscapers, and architects is discussed below

<h3>What is angle of elevation and depression?</h3>

If a person stands and looks up at an object, the angle of elevation is the angle between the horizontal line of sight and the object. If a person stands and looks down at an object, the angle of depression is the angle between the horizontal line of sight and the object.

If the pilot looks straight out, that line of sight is horizontal (focused on the distant horizon). The pilot might see the airport's runway, distant buildings, or even mountains in her field of view.

If the pilot looks down at the ground, the one will see the ground crew. The angle of depression is the angle that is formed between the horizontal and the downward looking angle. It is always a downward view, an angle below the horizon.

For the ground crewmember, looking down would not be much help in communicating with the pilot in her cockpit seat. The crewmember will look up, above the horizontal line, to see the pilot. The ground crewmember's angle of vision if an angle of elevation, the angle above the horizon.

Angle of elevation or depression in a survey can be defined as the angle subtended between the line of sight passing through the scope and the horizontal axis of the instrument.

Engineers, landscapers, architects all use trigonometry in their everyday life to help them efficiently and safely create or design something new.

Barbra can walk 3,200 meters in 24 minutes. How far can she walk in three minutes.
lisabon 2012 [21]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

To find how far she can walk in 3 minutes, we need to find how fast she can walk in 1 minutes. We do this by dividing the distance she walked by the time she walked. Lets do so.

3200/24=133.33

She walks 133.33 meters per minute. Now to find her distance in 3 minutes w multiply this number by 3.

133.33*3=400

Barbra walks 400 meters every 3 minutes.
