Angles of ElevationAn angle of elevation is the angle between the line of sight and the horizontal when an observer looks upward.

Angles of DepressionAn angle of depression is the angle between the line of sight when an observer looks downward, and the horizontal.

An airplane is flying at a height of 2 miles above the ground. The distance along the ground from the airplane to the airport is 5 miles. What is the angle of depression from the airplane to the airport?

A building is 50 feet high. At a distance away from the building, an observer notices that the angle of elevation to the top of the building is 41º. How far is the observer from the base of the building?
