explaining header files path in c

I have a headerpath in a c program that reads

#include <lib/a.h>
#include <lib/b.h>

How do I specify where 'lib' should be in my makefile? It gives me a compile error saying lib/a.h is not found. But I know the system path where a.h is located. How do I tell my Makefile where to go find lib?

Thanks, Vik.

Add an argument -I/path/to/include to the compilation flags (e.g., CFLAGS or CXXFLAGS) where the path leads to the parent directory of the lib directory.
