To calculate the vertical drop over a given horizontal distance due to a slope, we use the formula: vertical drop = horizontal distance * tan(slope angle). Given a 3-degree slope over 1 meter, the vertical drop would be 1 meter * tan(3 degrees), which is approximately 0.0524 meters or 5.24 centimeters. This means that for every 1 meter of horizontal distance, the elevation would decrease by about 5.24 centimeters.
