What is the angle of inclination of the surface of a rock unit or fault measured from a horizontal plane?

Hold a ruler level, then slope the ruler to an angle of 45 degrees. The inclination of the ruler is now 45 degrees.
So if rock has been altered as to be unlevel, then the angle from the level is the rock beds inclination.

a horizontal angle measured clockwise from a north base line describes what?
an azimuth
what describes a horizontal angle measured clockwise from a north base line?
An azimuth.
A horizontal angle measured clockwise from a north base line describes?
Azimuth
What is the percentage slope of a 4 12 roof pitch?
The angle of inclination off horizontal is roughly 18-1/2o.
How does a plane work?
An inclined plane is a plain surface set at an angle other than a right angle against a horizontal surface
What is the angle between the ramp and the horizontal?
The angle of inclination.
what is a horizontal angle measured clockwise from a north base line?
An Azimuth
a force P making angle of 30° with the horizontal bused to push a box of 10kg up and inclined plane with the angle of inclination of 30° with the horizontal. calculate the value of P?
300 beacuse 10x30=300

A simple machine with a flat surface set at an angle to a horizontal surface?
A simple machine that consists of a flat surface set at an angle to a horizontal surface is known as a ramp. Ramps make it easier to move heavy objects on wheels up or down levels.
What does slope determine?
Slope is the angle compared with the horizontal, where the horizontal is 90° to the vertical, which can be measured with a plumb line. So, put a weight on a string, measure the angle of the string to the angle you are measuring, subtract 90° and that will give you the slope.
What is a true bearing?
A true bearing is a type of bearing that indicates the direction of one point relative to another point on the Earth's surface, measured using true north as a reference point. It is expressed as an angle, measured in degrees, between a fixed reference direction (such as true north) and the direction of the point being observed. True bearings are important for navigation, surveying, and other applications that require accurate direction-finding. They differ from magnetic bearings, which are measured relative to the Earth's magnetic field, and are subject to variation depending on the location and time. True bearings are more reliable and consistent, as they are based on the Earth's axis of rotation and do not change over time or location.
What is inclination and declination?
Inclination is measured as the angle at which the satellite crosses the equator while passing from the southern hemisphere to the northern hemisphere. Declination is the difference between magnetic North as reported by a compass and true North.
