For example, the degree is defined such that one turn is 360 degrees. Using metric prefixes, the turn can be divided in 100 centiturns or 1000 milliturns, with each milliturn corresponding to an angle of 0.36°, which can also be written as 21′ 36″. [16] [17] A protractor divided in centiturns is normally called a "percentage protractor".
The square is pivoted on the (left side 2x4) and locked into the ⊾ 20° degree index at the red marked line. The SECOND image displays ⊾ X = 70° on the clear protractor that is graduated in 360°, ⊾ X = 20° on the Aluminum angle square. Both red lines ⊾ X are Parallel and thereby congruent.
The values of sine and cosine of 30 and 60 degrees are derived by analysis of the equilateral triangle. In an equilateral triangle, the 3 angles are equal and sum to 180°, therefore each corner angle is 60°. Bisecting one corner, the special right triangle with angles 30-60-90 is obtained.
A half-circle protractor marked in degrees (180°). A protractor is a measuring instrument, typically made of transparent plastic, for measuring angles. Some protractors are simple half-discs or full circles. More advanced protractors, such as the bevel protractor, have one or two swinging arms, which can be used to help measure the angle.

The length is copied from the point to O'. This will become the centre used by circular protractor. Draw a line from here to crossing of the vertical and the long-line. The circular protractor is aligned so that zero falls on the new line. Points are marked off and lines drawn through them to the long line.
For tables with greater precision (more digits per value), higher order interpolation may be needed to get full accuracy. [3] In the era before electronic computers, interpolating table data in this manner was the only practical way to get high accuracy values of mathematical functions needed for applications such as navigation, astronomy and ...
The reference values for the normal ROM in individuals differ slightly depending on age and sex. [2] For example, as an individual ages, they typically lose a small amount of ROM. Analog and traditional devices to measure range of motion in the joints of the body include the goniometer and inclinometer which use a stationary arm, protractor ...
