I. Learning Objectives
At the end of the lesson the students should be able to:
a. Illustrates angles of elevation and depression.
b. Solve real-life problems involving angles of elevation and depression.
c. Appreciate the concept of trigonometry.
III. Procedure
A. Preparation
1. Greetings
2. Checking of attendance
3. Drill on: “Solving Right Triangles Involving Trigonometric Functions”
4. Motivation:
A. 4 Pics and 1 Word
B. The teacher will ask real-life problem with illustrations involving line of
sight, angle of elevation and angle of depression.
B. Presentation
1. Definitions:
Line of sight is an imaginary line that connects the eye of an observer to the object
being observed.
The angle of elevation is the angle from the horizontal to the line of sight of the
observer to the object above.
The angle of depression is the angle from the horizontal to the line of sight of the
observer to the object below.
Example 3: A SCIENCE teacher requires his students to plant trees for eco-friendly
environment. A nursery plants a new tree and attaches a guy wire to help support the tree
while its roots take hold. An eight foot wire is attached to the tree and to a stake in the
ground. From the stake in the ground the angle of elevation of the connection with the tree
is 42°. Find the height of the connection point on the tree.
Example 4: An airplane is flying at a height of 4 kilometers above the ground. The distance
along the ground from the airplane to the airport is 6 kilometers. What is the angle of
depression from the airplane to the airport?
