One that doesn't cause numbness. Horizontal is the general recommendation, although some favors a little nose down. A rare minority prefers nose up.

What does it mean to ride high in the saddle?

it just means to sit up properly with your shoulders relaxed and your arms at a 45 degree angle


What is a cutback saddle?

A cutback saddle has an opening cut into the pommel that will allow extra room for a horses withers. Depending on the shape and angle of the pommel, a cutback saddle can be called a straight-head saddle or sloped-head saddle. Further down this page is a link to an article on cutback saddles, written by saddlery expert Lois Gilbert, which first appeared in the magazine Practical Horseman.A cutback saddle is a type of saddle often used in "saddleseat" or gaited horse riding.


What kind of angle is always the same distance apart?

An angle has no distance and so there is no angle which is the same distance apart.


What is the prefix for the number two?

bi- like bicycle, binary, angle bisector, etc.


How do you bend a 3 bend saddle with conduit?

To bend a 3 bend saddle with conduit, mark the location of the bends on the conduit. Make the first bend at the desired angle, then measure and mark the distance for the second bend. Make the second bend, then repeat for the third bend. Use a conduit bender tool to achieve precise angles and measurements.


What angle is the same distance from the normal on a plane mirror as the incident angle?

The angle of reflection.


The Slope distance of a line is 78.77feet and the slope angle is 2 degrees 40'. What is the corresponding horizontal distance?

First of all, 2 deg 40' = (8/3) degreesremember soh-cah-toa...sin(angle) = opposite Side Distance / hypotenuse Distance.cos(angle) = adjacent Side Distance / hypotenuse Distance.tan(angle) = opposite side distance / adjacent side distance...the sides correspond to their location relative to the angle being measured.. knowing the hypotenuse distance, and the angle. you have:cos(8/3) = your horizontal / hypotenuse length.thus:horizontal Distance = cos(8/3) * hypotenuse length = 78.68


What is the relationship between angle and distance?

distance and angle of elevation are closely related as the more closer you move, the half is the angle of elevation. for e.g. if you travel 30m and cover 15m then, the angle of elevation will be half of what you started with. this can be also proved by a live example as when you have the angle of elevation as 90 degree, then the distance can be zero....


Does angle of catapult affect distance object travels?

Yes, the angle at which a catapult is launched can affect the distance an object travels. The optimal angle for maximum distance depends on factors such as the initial speed of the object and the force applied by the catapult. The angle that achieves the furthest distance is usually around 45 degrees.

Does a projectile's distance covered decrease when fired at an angle above forty-five degrees?

The optimal angle to fire a projectile if the objective is distance is 45 degrees. It follows that the distance traveled decreases whether the angle is increased or decreased from 45.


What projectile angle will get you the longest distance?

The optimal launch angle for the longest distance of a projectile is 45 degrees in the absence of air resistance. This angle allows for the greatest horizontal distance because it balances the vertical and horizontal components of the projectile's velocity.
