A dip circle can be used to determine the angle of dip at a place. A dip circle consists of a magnetic needle free to rotate in a vertical plane. The endpoints of the needle move over a vertical circular scale. This arrangement can rotate about a vertical axis. The angle rotated about the vertical axis can be read from a horizontal scale.

Question Image

 If the dip circle is now rotated about vertical axis by 90°. Now the needle is at 60° from vertical. The angle of dip at that place is
