Answer:

Angle of elevation

Explanation:

An angle measured from the horizontal upwards is an angle of elevation.

An angle measured from the horizontal downwards is an angle of depression.

∠ 2 is a measure from the horizontal upwards thus angle of elevation.

Note that ∠ 3 is an angle of depression
