The plane angle between two radii of a circle which cut off on the circumference an arc equal in length to the radius. The secondary SI unit for the plane angle is the radian. The inclination of one line to another. One complete revolution equals 360° (degrees) or 2π radians. 1 degree (°) = π/180 … Read more
I wanted to know how good is your Mobile Phone as an Angle Gauge? So I checked it against a known set of angles and a known gauge. So I set up an experiment using a surface table (an accurate flat plate), a sine bar and a Wixey angle gauge. This allows me to set … Read more
