83. buildings This Google<br />
Earth image shows the<br />
Leaning Tower of Pisa.<br />
Most buildings stand at a<br />
right angle, but the tower<br />
is sinking on one side. The<br />
angle of inclination is the<br />
angle between the vertical<br />

between the tower and<br />
the ground is 85° what is<br />
the angle of inclination?<br />
