Question

1 Write two differences between angle of elevation and angle of depression. ​

Answer 1

Answer:

1. The angle of elevation is when you are measuring the angle from the floor or the ground, and the angle of depression is when you are measuring from a ceiling.
2. The angle that would form if it was a real line to the ground is an angle of elevation. Exact opposite if your looking diagonally down; the angle between the "sight line" and the horizon or sky is the angle of depression.

Answer 2

Answer:

The angle that would form if it was a real line to the ground is an angle of elevation. Exact opposite if your looking diagonally down; the angle between the "sight line" and the horizon or sky is the angle of depression.

If you are looking at an object above the horizon then the angle between the horizontal and your line of sight is the angle of elevation.
