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.

I have 4 factors. Three of my factors are 1, 2, and 6. What is my fourth factor?
SIZIF [17.4K]

The 4th factor would be 3. You would find this out through a factor tree. If you don't know the original number when you start you look at your numbers. A factor of 1 usually goes with the highest number, assuming that the number 6 is the highest factor, that would be the original number. As 2 is the other known factor than we know that 3 has to be the last factor, because 2 x 3 = 6. It cannot be the number 12 because then there would be 6 factors not the needed 4.

frutty [35]

Answer: 94.5

Step-by-step explanation:

If average of 9 students is 94, their total will be 94x 9 = 846

If the 10th student scores 99, the new total is 846 + 99 = 945

So, the new average will be

945/10 = 94.5
