8 4 Angles of Elevation and Depression Objective

8 -4 Angles of Elevation and Depression Objective: To use angles of elevation and depression to solve problems Essential Understanding: You can use the angles of elevation and depression as the acute angles of right triangles formed by a horizontal distance and a vertical height.

This angle is the angle of elevation.
