Clinometer Compass
Product Code : JA-MLI-1745
The Clinometer Compass (SKU JA-MLI-1745) lets students measure the angle of elevation or depression of any object and use it to find heights and distances. Standing a known distance from a building, a pupil sights its top through the clinometer, reads the angle and applies trigonometric ratios to work out the height; from a raised position the angle of depression gives distances along the ground. The instrument is provided in a durable box. JaincoLab makes this clinometer compass in Ambala, India.

Using the clinometer compass in trigonometry lessons
Students use the clinometer compass outdoors to collect real angle measurements, then return to class to calculate heights and distances with sine, cosine or tangent.
- Angle of elevation to the top of a school building
- Angle of depression from a balcony or roof
- Height of a flagpole or tree from a measured distance
- Distance to an object when its height is known
- Group field work for heights-and-distances chapters
