A GPS range question.

Just wondering....if my very basic GPS not even a map...just lat long....gives me a distance from a ground way-point of 5 miles and I'm flying at 10.000ft ....aprox 2 miles high over the sea,

That 5 miles from the way-point... is that ground based 5 miles or a slant angle 5 miles.

Nick.
