Problem: A region has horizontal foliation with well-aligned acicular actinolite with a trend of 160°- 340°. What are the orientation of the X, Y, and Z directions of the strain ellipsoid and the XY, XZ, and YZ planes?
I know that the foliation is aligned with the X and Y plane and the Z axis is perpendicular to that, but I'm just confused on where to start. Please help me explain and answer the question. Need Assignment Help?
