An apparent dip is always
Answer: B
Correct answer: less than the true dip
True dip is the steepest possible line in the plane, so any section not perpendicular to the strike cuts the bed obliquely and shows a gentler angle: \[ \tan\delta_{app} = \tan\delta \cos\theta, \] where \( \theta \) is the angle from the true dip direction. The apparent dip falls to zero along the strike itself.
