For that same line the true inclination to the horizontal plane is about

  • A.45 degrees
  • B.30 degrees
  • C.36.9 degrees
  • D.53.1 degrees

Answer: C

Correct answer: 36.9 degrees

The true inclination is the angle whose tangent is the height difference over the plan length: \[ \tan\theta = \frac{45}{60} = 0.75, \qquad \theta = 36.9^\circ. \] Note that this is less than the apparent inclination measured in the elevation, as it must be - the projection always overstates the angle.
