Rulers that Measure Angles

Introduction to rulers that measure angles:

To measure an angle  we need a ruler called a protractor. The protractor is the common ruler which is used to measure an angle. It is very simple to measure an angle. In this way it will be very easy for us to measure the angles. This is the common way used allover the world for measuring an angle. There are four different types of angles that can be measured by using the protractor. Here we are going to see what is the way to measure angles through the protractor.

What is a Protractor?


This ruler name is called protractor, This is the ruler used to measure angles. There will be angles marked from 0 to 180.  When we want to measure an angle we have to keep the bottom line of the protractor and the angle that we have to measure on a same straight line. And then we have to see on which degree it projects. This will help us to figure out the angle. Protractor angle measurement will be very easy to find the angle.

Ways to Measure Angles:

Measuring an angle is very simple, When the angle is top of the line we have to measure it by keeping the protractor facing top.This is one of the ways of measuring an angle.

An angle is drawn and that angle is measured as 60 degree. we can see that the protractor is kept in the base line A and then we can see the projected angle B at the top of the protractor. So we can see the marking 60 degree in the protractor. So the angle given is 90 degree. This is how we figure out an angle using the protractor.

There are four different types of angles that can be figured out while measuring angles using protractor:

When we figure an angle, if it measures less than 90o (<90o acute="acute" an="an" angle.="angle." as="as" br="br" is="is" it="it" known="known" then="then">When we figure an angle, if it measures exactly 90o is known as a right angle.
When we figure an angle, if it measures greater than 90o and less than 180o is known as the obtuse angle.
When we figure an angle, if it measures exactly 180o is known as straight angle. So the straight angle looks line a straight line.
