If the Sun is "on the eastern horizon" then the altitude is zero. Perhaps you mean "azimuth?"

This is the way the problem worded it, but yes, Azimuth would make sense in the context of this.

Okay thanks! Well then you need to decide which one you'd like answered here in Stack Exchange. If it's altitude, then I think you can answer your own question here by clicking the Answer button. But if you want Azimuth answered here, then you can click "edit" and change to azimuth.

I don't think there's any need to insta-close this question so quickly, the OP is responsive and working to clarify.
