1. Group Assignment: The class will be divided into 4 groups. Each group will
go outside the ULS building to measure an assigned angle using a
clinometer.
2. Time Limit: You have 5 minutes to complete the task.
3. Using the Clinometer:
o Hold the clinometer and look through the straw with the 0-degree
mark facing you.
o Keep the clinometer steady and ensure you can clearly see the top
of the assigned object through the straw.
o Ensure that the string inside the clinometer is hanging freely.
4. Recording the Angle:
o Have a group member record the angle displayed on the
clinometer scale.
o Subtract the recorded angle from 90 degrees to determine the
correct measurement.
5. Sketch the Angle:
o After completing the angle measurement, return to the classroom.
o Draw or sketch the observer, the object you observed, and the
angle you measured on the Manila paper.
6. Presentation:
o Select a representative from your group to present your assigned
object and the measured angle to the class.
Please complete each step carefully, and ensure that all measurements are
accurately recorded and presented.
Guide questions:
1. Where did you find this illustration?
2. Describe the illustration or picture you have created from the
activity.
3. When you look up to tall objects, is there an angle formed? How?
4. Observe the measurement of the angle, what do you notice?
5. Do you think you can measure the height and the distance of tall
objects?
C. Analysis/Presenting Here’s our learning objective for today’s class. Kindly please read.
examples of the new
lesson where the Learning Objectives:
concepts are clarified 1. define the angle of elevation;
(3 minutes) 2. solve problems involving angle of elevation; and
3. appreciate the importance of angle of elevation on real-life
situations.
“Based on your illustrations, what do you think are the names of the two sides?”
“What is the direction of the angle?”
“Okay, it’s going upwards. Once it’s going up, what does this imply?”
“Very good, it’s raising or elevating.”
“Okay, this angle is called Angle of Elevation.”
“By knowing this angle of elevation, we will able to measures building, trees and
other objects.”
The angle of elevation is an angle that is formed between the horizontal line and
the line of sight. If the line of sight is upward from the horizontal line, then the
D.Abstraction angle formed is an angle of elevation.
(7 minutes)
In real life
“Based on the pictures or illustrations, what concept can we apply to this?”
“We can apply SOH-CAH-TOA in an angle of elevation. The horizontal line is the
adjacent side and the line of sight is the hypotenuse side.”
For example:
1. Michael is 6 feet tall. At a certain distance
away from Michael, an observer Angel
determines that the angle of elevation to the
top head of it is 35 ̊. How far is Angel from the
base of Michael?
Solution:
𝑜𝑝𝑝𝑜𝑠𝑖𝑡𝑒
tan 𝜃° =
𝑎𝑑𝑗𝑎𝑐𝑒𝑛𝑡
6
tan 35° =
𝑥

𝑥 = tan 35°
𝑥 = 8.57 𝑓𝑒𝑒𝑡
For checking:
𝑜𝑝𝑝𝑜𝑠𝑖𝑡𝑒
𝜃 = tan−1
𝑎𝑑𝑗𝑎𝑐𝑒𝑛𝑡
6
𝜃 = tan−1
8.57
𝜃 = 34.99650695° 𝑜𝑟 35°
2. A tree stands on a hill that rises at an angle of 12° from the horizontal. The
height of the tree is 40 feet. How far is the top of the tree from the point on
the ground directly below it, along the slanted hill?
Solution
𝑜𝑝𝑝𝑜𝑠𝑖𝑡𝑒
sin 𝜃 =
ℎ𝑦𝑝𝑜𝑡𝑒𝑛𝑢𝑠𝑒
40
sin 12° =
ℎ𝑦𝑝𝑜𝑡𝑒𝑛𝑢𝑠𝑒
40
hypotenuse =
sin 12°
ℎ𝑦𝑝𝑜𝑡𝑒𝑛𝑢𝑠𝑒 = 192.3893738
E. Valuing: Finding Individual Activity
Practical Applications
of Concepts and Skills Instruction: Analyze, sketch, and solve the following problems in your scratch
in Daily Living paper.
(9 minutes)
PROBLEM 1
Grace wants to measure the height of a tree. She walks exactly 125 feet
away from the foot of the tree and looks back at the top of the tree. She
finds that the angle of elevation of the top of the tree as 33 ̊. How tall is
the tree?
Solution
𝑡𝑎𝑛 𝜃 = 𝑜𝑝𝑝𝑜𝑠𝑖𝑡𝑒 /𝑎𝑑𝑗𝑎𝑐𝑒𝑛𝑡
𝑡𝑎𝑛 33° = 𝑥/125
𝑥 = 𝑡𝑎𝑛 33°(125)
𝑥 = 81.18 𝑓𝑡.

1. A person standing 5 meters away from a building observes that the angle
of elevation to the top of the building is 30°. If the person’s eye level is
√30 meters above the ground, how tall is the building?
Answer:
𝑜𝑝𝑝𝑜𝑠𝑖𝑡𝑒
tan 𝜃° =
𝑎𝑑𝑗𝑎𝑐𝑒𝑛𝑡
𝑜𝑝𝑝𝑜𝑠𝑖𝑡𝑒
tan 30° =
5
Opposite = 5 tan 30°
Opposite = 2.886751346
𝑐 2 = 𝑎2 + 𝑏 2
(23.09401077)2 − (20)2 = 𝑎2
133.3333 = 𝑎^2
𝑎 = 11.5400538
Total height=11..5400538+1.5=13.04700538 meters
