solar altitude angle= (90 degree - zenith angle )
Degrees of longitude are uniform in length. 1 degree (Longitude) = 69.69 miles*Cos(Ө)(latitude) however the length of a degree of latitude depends on were you are on the planet. A degree of latitude at the equator is notable longer than, for example, a degree of latitude at the latitude of Toronto, Canada.
A 45-degree angle is an acute angle
A 90 degree angle is a right angle
Every degree of angle divides into 60 minutes of angle and every minute of angle divides into 60 seconds of angle. This system of measuring angles has been used since the Babylonians established it roughly 3000 years ago..
solar altitude angle= (90 degree - zenith angle )
In a right triangle the greatest angle is 90 degrees.
An angle can have up to 180 degree's. A circle can have up to 360 degrees. An angle with 180 degrees is a straight line. If you went any farther than it would change into a 179 degree angle, and so on.
Longitude is an angle. So is latitude. Both can be measured in any angle unit, but the 'degree' and its subdivisions have always been the most popular.
The angle between the north pole and the south pole ... the total range of latitude ... is 180 degrees.
Latitude and longitude are written in degrees to measure angles. The Earth is divided into 360 degrees of longitude and 180 degrees of latitude, with 0 degrees at the equator and the Prime Meridian, respectively. This system allows for precise and universal location coordinates across the globe.
To determine your latitude in the northern hemisphere using a star, measure the angle between the horizon and the star using a sextant. This angle is called the star's altitude. If you know the star's declination (which is constant), subtract it from 90 degrees minus the star's altitude to find your latitude.
its 45 degree
The supplement of a 148-degree angle is a 32-degree angle.
The complement of a 55 degree angle is a 35 degree angle
A "line" of latitude is a circle that goes all the way around the earth, parallel to the equator. The "line" is made up of all the points on Earth that have the same latitude, and any latitude you name makes a different "line". The"line" is not divided up into any parts. Latitude is an angle. Latitudes are described in units of angles, usually degrees and parts of a degree. There are 60 minutes in one degree of angle, and 60 seconds in one minute of angle.
