    Ans: 115 The rake of given mineral lineation on the foliation plane is 90° which means that the plunge direction of the mineral Lineation is same as the true dip direction of the given foliation plane. The strike of the foliation plane is 025, so the true dip direction of foliation plane will be 025+90=115°. The plunge direction of mineral lineation and true dip direction of foliation plane are equal so the plunge direction of mineral lineation will also be equal to 115°.
