how you mesaure angles

1 answer

Angles can be measured using degrees (°), radians (rad), or gradians (gon). The most commonly used measurement unit is degrees. A full circle is divided into 360 degrees, with each degree further divided into 60 minutes ('). Each minute is then divided into 60 seconds (").

To measure an angle, you can use a protractor or other angle measuring tools. Place the protractor on the vertex of the angle and align the baseline of the protractor with one side of the angle. Read the measurement where the other side of the angle intersects with the protractor scale.

Alternatively, if you know the length of the sides of a right angle triangle, you can use trigonometric functions such as sine, cosine, and tangent to calculate the angles.
