You are climbing a deg slope going to a drillpad at the peak of the hill. At elevations mASL and mASL, you encountered the bottom and top respectively of a gently dipping mafic sill. You climbed further to the top at a distance of m and at elevation mASL you reached the peak which is your drillsite. Then as you descend to the opposite side
of the hill, the slope inclination is now at deg. and descending at a distance of m you again encountered the top and bottom of the same mafic sill at elevations mASL and mASL respectively.
Calculate the true dip of the gently dipping mafic sill assuming your traverse is directly perpendicular to the strike of the sill round to two decimal places
Calculate the true thickness of the mafic sill round to two decimal places
At what vertical depth would the drillhole encounter the top of the mafic sill round to two decimal places
At what elevation mASL would the bottom of the mafic sill be encountered by the drillhole round to two decimal places
