Comparison of angles of kpc-scale jets to the line of sight for two computation methods—one using VLBI observations of superluminal (SL) motion (θ_kpc in Table 10) and the other assuming that the kpc-scale X-rays result from the IC-CMB model with Γ = 15 (θ in Tables 9 and 10). The abscissa is determined from geometric constraints using the difference between the position angles of the pc-scale and kpc-scale jets by the method described in Paper II. The IC-CMB model is used to derive an angle to the line of sight. The solid line indicates where these two angles are equal. Angles from the IC-CMB calculation are generally ×2 larger than those based on geometry and superluminal motion of the pc-scale jet. Thus, one may infer that the jets decelerate substantially from pc scales to kpc scales, given that it is highly unlikely that that jets predominantly bend away from the line of sight between pc and kpc scales or that Γ reaches values of the order of 50 on kpc scales.
