    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.

    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.

    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 ...

  5. Camera angle - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Camera_angle

    The camera angle marks the specific location at which the movie camera or video camera is placed to take a shot. A scene may be shot from several camera angles simultaneously. [1] This will give a different experience and sometimes emotion. The different camera angles will have different effects on the viewer and how they perceive the scene ...

    Triangles have many types based on the length of the sides and the angles. A triangle whose sides are all the same length is an equilateral triangle, [3] a triangle with two sides having the same length is an isosceles triangle, [4] [a] and a triangle with three different-length sides is a scalene triangle. [7]

    A canted oriel window in Lengerich, Germany. A bay window is a window space projecting outward from the main walls of a building and forming a bay in a room. It typically consists of a central windowpane, called a fixed sash, flanked by two or more smaller windows, known as casement or double-hung windows.

  9. Solution of triangles - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Solution_of_triangles

    The reason is that the value of sine for the angle of the triangle does not uniquely determine this angle. For example, if sin β = 0.5, the angle β can equal either 30° or 150°. Using the law of cosines avoids this problem: within the interval from 0° to 180° the cosine value unambiguously determines its angle.
