Question

Carlos is making some observations from the roof of a building. Which angle is the angle of depression from carlos to the car?
a. angle mkl
b. angle lki
c. angle ikp
d. angle lkp

Answer 1

I think the correct answer from the choices listed above is option C. The angle of depression from Carlos to the car is angle IKP since Carlos is making the observation from point K, the ground is at point P and the car is at point I thus the points makes an angle.

Answer 2

we know that

The angle below horizontal that an observer must look to see an object is called the angle of depression

The angle above horizontal that an observer must look to see an object is called the angle of elevation

In this problem we have

the horizontal is the line KL

and the angle  below horizontal between Carlos and the car is equal to

Angle LKI

therefore

the answer is

The angle of depression from Carlos to the car is the angle LKI
