That depends on how wide the river is, how far away the building on the other side of the river is, how tall the other building is. If the river is 10ft across and the buildings are the same heigh, why would he have to look up at a 23 degree angle?
There are two schools of thought regarding elevation views of buildings. Some say that when you are standing to the north of a building, you are looking at the North Elevation, because THAT is the side that is FACING North. Others say that since you are LOOKING to the South, you are looking at the South Elevation. I myself am baffled that there is even this confusion. Consider this. If you are looking at a house and you can see the front door and the front side of the house, you naturally call this the Front Elevation. There is no ambiguity. You wouldn't think to argue that because you are LOOKING in the DIRECTION of the rear of the building, that you are looking at the rear elevation? That would make no sense at all! So why do some then insist that the name of the elevation is based on the direction you are looking? The North Elevation is the North side of the building. That's it, done!
If the engineer's eye is at ground level, then the distance to the point on the building underneath its highest point is 450/tan(22) ft. If the engineer was standing and his eyes were x ft above the ground, the distance is (450-x)/tan(22) ft.
if i was on the empire state building. that would scare the LIFE out of me!
Angle of elevation is looking upwards to an object and angle of depression is looking downwards to an object
An elevation view is a two-dimensional representation of a building or object that shows one side of it as if you were looking at it from directly in front or from the side. It helps to illustrate the height, width, and depth of the structure, and is commonly used in architectural drawings and design.
Based on looking at the video, he was standing at a podium on the west front steps of the Capitol building, looking out at the crowd. When he spoke, he faced the crowd, although he occasionally turned to look at some of the people standing behind or to the right or left of him.
Assuming you are looking for a word that means "elevation to a divine status" the answer is "apotheosis"
The angle of elevation is looking at an object above your line of sight.
No it doesn't show elevation. I was looking for it too but it doesnt seem like it to me.
It depends on where and in which country you are standing in. If I look South from my English village, I am looking across farm fields.
Try looking on Wikipedia.
