Hot-air Balloon Horizontal line 38 ° Angle of elevation 38° Horizontal line Angle of Depression and Elevation • Suppose a person in a hot-air balloon sees a person at an angle of 38 degrees below a horizontal line. This angle is an angle of depression. At the same time, the person on the ground sees the hot-air balloon at an angle of 38 degrees above a horizontal line. This angle is an angle of elevation.
