A clinometer is used to measure angles. This is the method used by foresters to measure the height of a tree. The clinometer only works for measuring height when the observer is standing exactly one "chain" length away from the tree (66' or 100 links). Thats what i found on google, so im gonna say A, or B what do you think?

Elevations or depressions
