Monumental Angles

If you look close fully at the eiffel tower, the most iconic land mark in Paris, you will be able to spot vertical angles. The mint green lines represent one vertical angle, but their are hundreds more located within the massive iron structure. The braces, in the cases the vertical angles, support the structure. Many of these x shaped, vertical angle-esque braces are used in the construction industry to support tall structures.
