The dip is the angle that the total magnetic field of the earth makes with the surface of earth. Hence, if the magnetic needle is balanced about a horizontal axis so that it can swing in a plane of the magnetic meridian, the needle makes an angle with the horizontal. This angle is called angle of dip or angle of inclination.
