Two angles that share terminal sides, but differ in size by an integer multiple of a turn, are called coterminal angles. The reference angle (sometimes called related angle) for any angle θ in standard position is the positive acute angle between the terminal side of θ and the x-axis (positive or negative).
The sine of the angles between subspaces satisfy the triangle inequality in terms of majorization and thus can be used to define a distance on the set of all subspaces turning the set into a metric space. [6] For example, the sine of the largest angle is known as a gap between subspaces. [9]
English: This file illustrates the concept of coterminal angles. A blue angle AOI is represented, and its measure is seen as a blue arc, with an arrow of the same color pointing counterclockwise to indicate its direction, and the text 45°. Point I is on the x axis and on OI, point A is on OA.
Even with these restrictions, if the polar angle (inclination) is 0° or 180°—elevation is −90° or +90°—then the azimuth angle is arbitrary; and if r is zero, both azimuth and polar angles are arbitrary. To define the coordinates as unique, the user can assert the convention that (in these cases) the arbitrary coordinates are set to zero.
A convex quadrilateral is ex-tangential if and only if there are six concurrent angles bisectors: the internal angle bisectors at two opposite vertex angles, the external angle bisectors at the other two vertex angles, and the external angle bisectors at the angles formed where the extensions of opposite sides intersect.
The interior angle concept can be extended in a consistent way to crossed polygons such as star polygons by using the concept of directed angles.In general, the interior angle sum in degrees of any closed polygon, including crossed (self-intersecting) ones, is then given by 180(n–2k)°, where n is the number of vertices, and the strictly positive integer k is the number of total (360 ...
A formula for computing the trigonometric identities for the one-third angle exists, but it requires finding the zeroes of the cubic equation 4x 3 − 3x + d = 0, where is the value of the cosine function at the one-third angle and d is the known value of the cosine function at the full angle.
Alternate angles are the four pairs of angles that: have distinct vertex points, lie on opposite sides of the transversal and; both angles are interior or both angles are exterior. If the two angles of one pair are congruent (equal in measure), then the angles of each of the other pairs are also congruent.
