Detailed Solution

The three basic quantities that decide the magnetic field of the Earth are:
1. Magnetic declination (θ): It tells about the declination between magnetic north and south pole and the geographic north and south pole.

2. Magnetic dip (δ): It is the angle made by the magnetic field lines with the horizontal at any point.

3. Horizontal component of Earth's magnetic field (B_H).

The vertical component of Earth's field will have no effect on the magnetic field of the Earth.
