The angle of elevation of the ground is the angle between the ground and the line of sight

The angle of elevation of the ground is 30.46 degrees

<h3>How to calculate the angle of elevation</h3>

The angle of elevation is calculated using the following tangent ratio

\tan(\theta) = \frac{10}{17}

Evaluate the quotient

\tan(\theta) = 0.5882

Take the arc tan of both sides

\theta = \tan^{-1}(0.5882)

Using a calculator, we have:

\theta = 30.46

Hence, the angle of elevation of the ground to the nearest tenth of a degree is 30.46 degrees
