2. Magnetic dip - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Magnetic_dip

   Magnetic dip causes the compass to dip upward or downward depending on the latitude. Illustration of magnetic dip from Norman's book, The Newe Attractive. Magnetic dip, dip angle, or magnetic inclination is the angle made with the horizontal by Earth's magnetic field lines. This angle varies at different points on Earth's surface.

3. Strike and dip - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Strike_and_dip

   A feature's orientation can also be represented by dip and dip direction, using the azimuth of the dip rather than the strike value. Linear features are similarly measured with trend and plunge, where "trend" is analogous to dip direction and "plunge" is the dip angle. [3] Strike and dip are measured using a compass and a clinometer. A compass ...

4. Spherical coordinate system - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Spherical_coordinate_system

   The user may choose to replace the inclination angle by its complement, the elevation angle (or altitude angle), measured upward between the reference plane and the radial line—i.e., from the reference plane upward (towards to the positive z-axis) to the radial line. The depression angle is the negative of the elevation angle.

5. Dip angle - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dip_angle

   Dip angle may refer to: Magnetic dip, the angle of the Earth's magnetic field lines relative to the horizontal; Dip (geology), the angle of a planar geological feature relative to the horizontal; Dip angle, the angle between the apparent and the astronomical horizons

6. Geometry Dash - Wikipedia

   Geometry Dash Lite is a free version of the game with advertisements and gameplay restrictions. Geometry Dash Lite includes only main levels 1-19, all tower levels, and a few selected levels that are either Featured, Daily, weekly or Event levels but does not offer the option to create levels or play most player-made levels. It also has a ...

7. Dip circle - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dip_circle

   A dip circle by P. Gruber, Vienna, from before 1900. Dip circles (also dip needles) are used to measure the angle between the horizon and the Earth's magnetic field (the dip angle). They were used in surveying, mining and prospecting as well as for the demonstration and study of magnetism.

8. Orientation (geometry) - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Orientation_(geometry)

   Changing orientation of a rigid body is the same as rotating the axes of a reference frame attached to it.. In geometry, the orientation, attitude, bearing, direction, or angular position of an object – such as a line, plane or rigid body – is part of the description of how it is placed in the space it occupies. [1]

9. Inclinometer - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Inclinometer

   An inclinometer or clinometer is an instrument used for measuring angles of slope, elevation, or depression of an object with respect to gravity's direction. It is also known as a tilt indicator , tilt sensor , tilt meter , slope alert , slope gauge , gradient meter , gradiometer , level gauge , level meter , declinometer , and pitch & roll ...
