Quarter IV, Week 3

Lesson 3: Angles of Elevation and Depression

MOST ESSENTIAL LEARNING COMPETENCIES

M9GE-IVd-1: The learner illustrates angles of elevation and angles of


depression.

In this set of activities, you should illustrate angle of elevation and angle
of depression.

WHAT YOU NEED TO REMEMBER?

Did you know that when you stare to an object that is above or below you, angles are
made? Did you also know that you can even compute the distances of objects using these
angles?

If you are standing down at a certain place in the village and staring a mountain near the place,
can you directly measure the height of the mountain? How do pilots know the height of the plane
vertically down to the ground?

These are just few of the several questions that can be answered when you learned the concepts of angles of elevation
and depression. Using this knowledge with the aid of the trigonometric ratios you previously learned will make you a wizard
in solving real-life problems in right triangles.

Let us start knowing how line of sights be used in illustrating the angle of elevation and angle of depression.

Definitions:
➢ Line of sight is an imaginary line that connects the eye of an observer to the object being observed.

Types of line of sights:

Line of sight from the eye of an Line of sight from the eye of an Line of sight from the eye of an
observer directly to an object observer parallel to the flat ground observer directly to an object
above. (horizontal). below.

The angle of elevation is the angle made The angle of depression is the angle made
with the horizontal and the line of sight of with the horizontal and the line of sight of
the observer to the object above. the observer to the object below.

Example: In the given figures, identify if the angles (if any) illustrate the angle of elevation or angle of depression.

Figure Answer

Angle of elevation

Angle of depression

a
b In the figure, a is an angle of elevation and b is an angle
of depression.
