4.11.6 Elevation and Depression
The student is able to (I can):
• Solve problems involving angles of depression or elevation
angle of elevation
This is an angle formed by a horizontal
line and the line of sight to a point aboveaboveaboveabove
the line.
angle
On the SAT, this is called the angle of
inclination.
angle of depression
This is an angle formed by a horizontal
line and a line of sight to a point belowbelowbelowbelow
the line.
angle
On the SAT, this is called the angle of
declination.
These two angles are related because the
horizontal lines are parallel:
To identify whether an angle is an angle of
elevation or depression, check whether the
line of sight is above or below the horizontal
line.
Identify whether the angle is an angle of
elevation or depression.

Examples 1. If a tree casts a shadow 18 feet long
when the sun is at an elevation of 35˚,
how tall is the tree to the nearest foot?

4.11.6 Angles of Elevation and Depression

  • 1. 4.11.6 Elevation and Depression The student is able to (I can): • Solve problems involving angles of depression or elevation
  • 2. angle of elevation This is an angle formed by a horizontal line and the line of sight to a point aboveaboveaboveabove the line. angle On the SAT, this is called the angle of inclination.
  • 3. angle of depression This is an angle formed by a horizontal line and a line of sight to a point belowbelowbelowbelow the line. angle On the SAT, this is called the angle of declination.
  • 4. These two angles are related because the horizontal lines are parallel: To identify whether an angle is an angle of elevation or depression, check whether the line of sight is above or below the horizontal line.
  • 5. Identify whether the angle is an angle of elevation or depression. 1. ∠1 2. ∠2 3. ∠3 4. ∠4 depression depression elevation elevation
  • 6. Examples 1. If a tree casts a shadow 18 feet long when the sun is at an elevation of 35˚, how tall is the tree to the nearest foot? 35˚ 18´ (adj) x (opp) x tan35 18 ° = x = 13 feet = °x 18tan35
  • 7. 2. A plane, at an altitude of 3000 feet, observes the airport at an angle of 27˚. What is the horizontal distance between the plane and the airport to the nearest foot? 27˚ 3000´ (opp) (27˚) x (adj) 3000 tan27 x ° = x = 5888 feet = ° 3000 x tan27
