A mountaineer is watching camp from the top of a hill with an angle of depression of 30°. The height of the hill is 20 km then find the length of the line of sight of the mountaineer.

A fire is sighted by a ranger in a fire tower, 75 meters above the ground. If the ranger is looking down at an angle of depression of 22°, how far from the base of the tower is the fire?

What are the Factors Affecting the Angle of Depression?

Given the height of the tower is 30 m and the distance of the object from the tower is 10 m. Find the angle of depression when the observer is in the tower and observing the object.

An angle 𝜃,which is the angle of depression formed by the line of sight of an observer and the horizontal line of an object above or below the horizontal, can be calculated using the following formula:

the angle created by the line of sight of an observer and a horizontal line for an object below the horizontal.

Given the angle of depression formed when the observer is observing the object from top of a pole is 30°. The distance of the object from the pole is 100 m. Find the height of the pole.

Find the angle of depression given the base and hypotenuse of the 5 cm and 13 cm respectively.
