Stick your arm out straight in front of you pointing at the horizon, then raise it so that you point above the horizon, the angle your arm is making with the horizontal is the angle of elevation

In your question the Sin of this angle = 3/5

elevation refers to an incline or a height

the angle of the elvation in this case is

arcsin \frac{3}{5}

note:

arcsin = sin^{-1}
