    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cant_(architecture)

    The Chiesa del Purgatorio, Ragusa: the facade are angled (canted) back from the centre. County Hall, Aylesbury with canted recesses. A cant in architecture is an angled (oblique-angled) line or surface that cuts off a corner. [1] [2] Something with a cant is canted. Canted façades are a typical of, but not exclusive to, Baroque architecture.

  3. Dutch angle - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dutch_angle

    Person passed out on sidewalk – New York City, 2008 – shot using Dutch angle. In filmmaking and photography, the Dutch angle, also known as Dutch tilt, canted angle, vortex plane, or oblique angle, is a type of camera shot that involves setting the camera at an angle so that the shot is composed with vertical lines at an angle to the side of the frame, or so that the horizon line of the ...

  4. Camera angle - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Camera_angle

    Where the camera is placed in relation to the subject can affect the way the viewer perceives the subject. Some of these many camera angles are the high-angle shot, low-angle shot, bird's-eye view, and worm's-eye view. A viewpoint is the apparent distance and angle from which the camera views and records the subject. [2]

    Also called Dutch tilt, canted angle, or oblique angle. A type of camera shot where the camera is set at an angle on its roll axis so that the shot is composed with vertical lines at an angle to the side of the frame, or, equivalently, so that the horizon line of the shot is not parallel with the bottom of the camera frame.

  6. Angle of view (photography) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Angle_of_view_(photography)

    The collimator's distant virtual image of the target subtends a certain angle, referred to as the angular extent of the target, that depends on the collimator focal length and the target size. Assuming the sensed image includes the whole target, the angle seen by the camera, its FOV, is this angular extent of the target times the ratio of full ...

  7. Triangle - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Triangle

    An exterior angle of a triangle is an angle that is a linear pair (and hence supplementary) to an interior angle. The measure of an exterior angle of a triangle is equal to the sum of the measures of the two interior angles that are not adjacent to it; this is the exterior angle theorem. [34]

  8. Pentagon - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pentagon

    Angle CMD is bisected, and the bisector intersects the vertical axis at point Q. A horizontal line through Q intersects the circle at point P, and chord PD is the required side of the inscribed pentagon. To determine the length of this side, the two right triangles DCM and QCM are depicted below the circle.

  9. Visual angle - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Visual_angle

    The observers in experiment carried out by Murray and colleagues viewed a flat picture with two discs that subtended the same visual angle and formed retinal images of the same size , but the perceived angular size ′ of one was about 17% larger than for the other, due to differences in the background patterns for the disks. It was shown that ...
