vertical angle- either of two equal and opposite angles formed by the intersection of two straight lines angle- the space between two lines or planes that intersect; the inclination of one line to another; measured in degrees or radians
Noun1.azimuth- the azimuth of a celestial body is the angle between the vertical plane containing it and the plane of the meridian AZ angle- the space between two lines or planes that intersect; the inclination of one line to another; measured in degrees or radians ...
A great circle is the shortest track on the earth’s surface between the two points on the surface which also cuts through the earth’s centre [this would leave two perfectly equal hemispheres and not a smaller and bigger part]. Unfortunately, the direction shown in the calculation is relativ...
Method for calculating the angle between two vectors throwing up an error if the vectors are identical? 3 How to avoid math.sin(math.pi*2*VERY LARGE NUMBER) having a much larger error margin than math.sin(math.pi*2)? 3 The numpy angle function returns different answers for the same in...
If A, B,C are the vertices of a triangle in clockwise order and S is an isometry, then S(A), S(B), S(C) are also in clockwise order. 6. (a) In Figure 4.11, show by a realistic picture that P could be below L, P′ could be above L′, and P′′ could be between L ...

Absolute positions — latitudes and longitudes Relative positions — azimuths, bearings, and elevation angles Spherical distances between point locations Absolute positions are expressed ingeodetic coordinates, which are actually angles between lines or planes on a reference sphere or ellipsoid. Relative po...
a ray defined by two angles is computed. This ray represents the direction from the viewer through the pair of screen coordinates under consideration. In this embodiment, the view represents a projection that is either perspective, a fully curved non-perspective or lies between a perspective projec...
This projection can vary depending on the viewpoint of the image capture device, which results in perspective distortion between the captured images. Some wide-angle images provide rectilinear images having a large field of view (e.g., a 24 mm wide-angle lens for a 35 mm camera). Other ...
