Examples
- To calculate the position of the spacecraft, scientists must determine the angulation of the telescope relative to the planet.
- Engineers carefully measure the angulation of each bridge joint to ensure proper weight distribution and prevent structural collapse.
- Determining the exact angulation of a gun is essential to improve target accuracy and effective artillery training.
- Aviation navigation requires understanding of angles of intersection between altitude readings, achieved by recording multiple station references in every one-mile perimeter segment – enhancing horizontal cross course adjustment after correction – angulation then requires correction at maximum calculated gain.
- To ensure high accuracy and integrity of the construction project, specialists perform precise angulation measurements at various joint locations of the built frame.
