(38.) Angle of elevation An angle of elevation is the angle between the horizontal line and the line of sight of an object above the horizontal. In the diagram, a plane is flying horizontally across the sky and ZRST represents the angle of elevation. How is the angle of elevation affected as the plane flies closer to the person? Explain.
