Three Point Problem

This video pairs with homework 3, where we ask you to calculate the strike and dip for a bed with constant strike and dip at some depth below the surface.

I'm glad it helped! We are structure TAs, so we are hoping these videos help!

Great! Thank you for helping me understand the three-point problem well..,

[@shubhajitroy4073]

You are best teacher. Thanks for your explanation.

[@Magnetite44]

Thank you!!! Now I finally understand this!

This vedio really helped me understand the 3 point problem thank you so much!

This is very helpful. Thanks!

[@rochellergaston2867]

Thank you so much :) That was a comprehensive one ..

Thanks a lot

Had to learn this before exams tomorrow

[@viqtor2381]

Thank you. I think I'm beginning to understand it. How can I reach you I have some 3 point practical maps and I need a little bit of clarification with it.

[@williamwills492]

Thanks for this. I note you say early on 'true depths', do you mean true elevations? Depth is relative to ground level where elevation taken from your original depth offset from contour would be from sea level. Thanks

[@kc_structuralgeology6992]

yes, thank you for pointing that out. If your heart desired, you could do the same calculation with depths.

Howdy to everyone doing Dr. Bobyarchick's mid term right now...

[@MohamedElsaket]

do you there now ? i have a question please

[@NitinSharma-pu6eu]

At 4:33, how is it so that the two apparent dips are same?

[@kc_structuralgeology6992]

It’s because the second triangle is actually a similar triangle that we have to imagine being inside of the larger triangle. We aren’t making a triangle from B to C, we are making a similar triangle B’ to C inside of A to C.

@@kc_structuralgeology6992 Got it, thanks.

Llano's method vedio pls

[@kc_structuralgeology6992]

Sanu Mishra I'm not familiar with that. Can you comment with a link that describes what you're talking about? There might be a different name for it that I'm more familiar with.

Hi Thanks for the video very helpful I have a question, you mentioned any two points of the same height define strikes. If point B passed through at A-C line with a contour, why that point isn’t our strike line or Why B’ isn’t exactly on the contour line?
