• If the tool can be positioned opposite the bottom
of the tall object (to create an angle ≤ 45°), use
the distances to 2 points to calculate the height
(Figure ).
G
• If the tool must be pointed downward to aim at
the bottom of the tall object (to create an angle >
45°), use the distances to 3 points to calculate the
height (Figure ).
