Which navigation outcome arises, because a sextant’s mirrors exhibit parallax error at high angles?

💡 Explanation

Parallax error influences altitude measurement, because the Optical superposition mechanism causes a displacement. Therefore the observed angle requires trigonometric adjustments, rather than affecting declination directly, given loxodromes do not depend on instruments.
