ANGLE OF ELEVATION AND DEPRESSION (PART 1)

The angle of elevation is the angle between the horizontal line and the line of sight when looking upward at an object, while the angle of depression is the angle between the horizontal line and the line of sight when looking downward at an object. Both angles are measured from the horizontal and are used in trigonometry to solve real-world problems, such as finding heights or distances. For example, if you look up at a tower, the angle between your line of sight and the ground is the angle of elevation. Conversely, if you look down from a height, the angle between your line of sight and the horizontal is the angle of depression. Let me know if you need further clarification or examples!
