Explanation:

The direction of the magnetic field at any location on Earth's surface is commonly specified in terms of two angles, field declination and field inclination. Magnetic inclination is the angle between the horizontal plane and the total field vector, measured positive into Earth and Magnetic declination is the angle between magnetic north and true north.
