Find The Zenith Distance

If the sun's observed altitude is 27° 12', the zenith distance is          . 

Given:

Observed altitude (Ho) = 27° 12'

What is asked:

Zenith distance (ZX)

Solution:

This is the formula in getting zenith distance,

ZX = 90° - Ho
      = 90° - 27 12'        
     
         89° 60'
       - 27° 12' 
ZX = 62° 48'
