LEARNING TASK
1-
LOOK UP
LOOK DOWN
 FOLLOW THE STEPS BELOW AND ANSWER THE QUESTIONS THAT
FOLLOW:

1. MOVE AROUND THE ROOM. FIND ONE OBJECT THAT IS AT

YOUR EYE LEVEL AND LIST THEM ON THE TABLE AND MAKE AN
ILLUSTRATION OF:
A. OBJECTS AT EYE LEVEL

2. LET’S GO OUTSIDE. FIND ONE OBJECT/STRUCTURE THAT IS

ABOVE YOUR EYE LEVEL AND LIST THEM ON THE TABLE AND
MAKE AN ILLUSTRATION OF:
B. OBJECTS ABOVE EYE LEVEL

3. NOW, FIND ONE OBJECT/STRUCTURE THAT ARE BELOW YOUR

EYE LEVEL AND LIST THEM ON THE TABLE AND MAKE AN
ILLUSTRATION OF.
C. OBJECTS BELOW EYE LEVEL
LEARNING TASK 1-
LOOK UP LOOK DOWN
1. How did you find the activity?
2. Describe the illustrations you have
created from the activity.
3. What mathematical concepts have you
learned from the activity?
4. When you look up at the things above
your eye level, is there an angle formed?
5. How about when you look down?
6. Do you think you can directly measure
the height of the object/structure you
have listed in the activity?
WHAT IS IT?

ANGLE OF ELEVATION
ANGLE OF DEPRESSION
LINE OF
SIGHT
IT IS AN IMAGINARY
LINE THAT
CONNECTS THE EYE
OF AN OBSERVER TO
THE OBJECT BEING
OBSERVED.
 IT IS THE ANGLE
ANGLE OF ELEVATION
FROM THE
HORIZONTAL TO
THE LINE OF
SIGHT OF THE
OBSERVER TO
 IT IS THE ANGLE
ANGLE OF DEPRESSION
FROM THE
HORIZONTAL TO
THE LINE OF
SIGHT OF THE
OBSERVER TO
