mittevertikaalset
Mittevertikaalset refers to something that is not vertical. In geometry, a line or plane is considered vertical if it is perpendicular to the horizontal plane or to a gravitational field. Therefore, anything that deviates from this perpendicular orientation can be described as mittevertikaalset. This could include slanted lines, tilted planes, or objects that are leaning rather than standing upright. The concept is relative to a defined frame of reference, typically the Earth's surface. For example, a wall that is not perfectly plumb is mittevertikaalset. Similarly, a ramp or a sloped roof would be considered mittevertikaalset. In physics, a force that is not acting directly downwards due to gravity would also be described as mittevertikaalset in its direction of application. The term is the opposite of vertical and is often used in contrast to describe non-perpendicular orientations.
