True dip is the angle between an inclined surface and the horizontal, measured perpendicular to a horizontal line in the plane ([[strike]]). The dip seen in a limited data set (well bore, outcrop, cross section, seismic line, etc.) may not be perpendicular but rather cut at an angle, and is the apparent dip; this is less that the true dip.

The dip seen in a limited data set (well bore, outcrop, cross section, seismic line, etc.) may not be perpendicular but rather cut at an angle, and is the apparent dip; this is less that the true dip.it is usually written as 4S (dipping 4 degrees  in the southerly option perpendicular to strike; this requires that a strike be given), 4 SE (likewise), or 4 65SE (dipping 4 degrees in a 65SE direction; this by inference gives the strike, because it is perpendicular).
