The estimate of the directions of lines involves no really new principles, since, if two points, A and B, are exactly localized, the direction of the line AB can be appreciated.
The fault strike is the direction of the line of intersection between the fault plane and the surface of the Earth.
And this gave me extra time, time in which to think, to try to determine the direction of the line of questioning and, if possible, to prepare myself.
It has an important influence on the capacity, quantity, and quality of the design line, and sometimes even determines the direction of the line.
Another version of the model, suitable for the Moon, had the direction of the line from apogee to perigee gradually shift.
Strike, in geology, direction of the line formed by the intersection of a fault, bed, or other planar feature and a horizontal plane.
The exact position of the index mark (showing the direction of the line of sight) between two of these graduations is measured on both sides of the circle with the aid of a vernier or a micrometer.
The direction of the lines of force of this field, defined by the direction of the force exerted by the field on a (hypothetical) single magnetic north pole, is opposite to the direction of field used to magnetize it originally.
Trend is the direction of the line formed by the intersection of the planar feature with the ground surface; trend is the same as strike only if the ground surface is parallel to the horizontal plane.
The most probable adhesions of the gathering cells in a lateral direction of the line were found at a wider width than 20 μm, while that of the individual cells were found at a width of about 10 μm.
