Angle between Line of Sights in Radians Solution

STEP 0: Pre-Calculation Summary

Formula Used

Angle between LOS = Staff Intercept/Distance between Two Points
α = s_i/D
This formula uses 3 Variables

Variables Used

Angle between LOS - (Measured in Radian) - Angle between LOS is the angle made between the line of sight and the target.
Staff Intercept - (Measured in Meter) - Staff intercept is the difference in reading between top and bottom cross hairs.
Distance between Two Points - (Measured in Meter) - Distance between Two Points is defined as the length of space between two points. For finding the distance when curvature effects are considered, the value must be considered in kilometres.

STEP 1: Convert Input(s) to Base Unit

Staff Intercept: 3 Meter --> 3 Meter No Conversion Required
Distance between Two Points: 35.5 Meter --> 35.5 Meter No Conversion Required

STEP 2: Evaluate Formula

Substituting Input Values in Formula

α = s_i/D --> 3/35.5

Evaluating ... ...

α = 0.0845070422535211
