About This Product
Heights and distances is often the first topic where trigonometry meets the real world. Students sight the top of a building with the clinometer, read the angle of elevation, measure their distance from the base and apply the tangent ratio to find the height. The plastic clinometer also measures angles of depression, for practical work in school maths lessons. Schools and distributors in Egypt, Iran, Mexico, Kazakhstan, Tajikistan and Oman can order the Clinometer Compass from School Educational Instrument.
