2. Goniometer - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Goniometer

   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. Most protractors measure angles in degrees (°).

   The protractor head can be used for: Measuring and checking angles between surfaces, edges, and markings. Marking angles from an edge; Directly transferring angles, like a bevel gauge (sliding T gauge), to minimise measurement errors and inaccuracies. Measuring and marking angles relative to the horizontal by using the spirit level. [2]

6. Gradian - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gradian

   In trigonometry, the gradian – also known as the gon (from Ancient Greek γωνία (gōnía) 'angle'), grad, or grade [1] – is a unit of measurement of an angle, defined as one-hundredth of the right angle; in other words, 100 gradians is equal to 90 degrees.

7. Technical drawing tool - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Technical_drawing_tool

   Various scales and the protractor are used to measure the lengths of lines and angles, allowing accurate scale drawing to be carried out. The compass is used to draw arcs and circles. A drawing board was used to hold the drawing media in place; later boards included drafting machines that sped the layout of straight lines and angles.
