               1.  Jasni is  standing  on top of a hill  observing an                     Aeroplane
                   aeroplane  and a rock. Represent the situation  by
                   drawing and labelling
                   (a)  angle a which represents the angle of elevation
                        of the aeroplane from Jasni.
                   (b)  angle b which represents the angle of depression   Jasni
                        of the rock from Jasni.                                               Rock

                   Thus, the angle of elevation of P from O is 43°.
