HEIGHT AND DISTANCES

KEY POINTS

Line of sight

Line segment joining the object to the eye of the observer is called the line of sight.

Angle of elevation

When an observer sees an object situated in upward direction, the angle formed by line of sight with horizontal line is called angle of elevation.

Angle of depression

When an observer sees an object situated in downward direction the angle formed by line of sight with horizontal line is called angle of depression.
