- The trigonometric functions are real functions which relate an angle of a right-angled triangle to ratios of two side lengths.
- They are widely used in all sciences that are related to geometry, such as navigation, solid mechanics, celestial mechanics, geodesy, and many others.
- The "upwards" angle from the horizontal to a line of sight from the observer to some point of interest.
- From a boat on the lake, the angle of elevation to the top of the cliff is 24°22'. If the base of the cliff is 747 feet from the boat, how high is the cliff (to the nearest foot)?
- From a boat on the river below a dam, the angle of elevation to the top of the dam is 24°8'.
