Let the starting position be A, and the ending position of the glide be B.
The triangle ABC shown in the figure, is a right triangle with side lengths 16m and 0.8 m.
The angle of the squirrel's path below the horizon is BAC.
Using right triangle trigonometry:
tan(ABC)=(opposite side)/(adjacent side)=0.8/16=0.05
to find m(ABC) we calculate arctan(0.05) which is 2.86°
Answer: 2.86°
