What tool is used to mark lines at right angles?

Names of Tools Used to Measure AnglesPrint this articleWhile many may think of angles only in terms of geometry, angles occur in most everything. We recline our car seat to a comfortable angle. We adjust our computer monitors to angle them so we can see the screen easier. Architecture uses more than 90-degree angles; it also uses other aesthetic angles to create more interesting buildings. Art uses angles in all media. Angles can be used to calculate heights and locations. Angles are everywhere. As such, we have special instruments to measure angles.The ProtractorThe protractor is the most basic tool for measuring angles. It is used in math applications from engineering to architecture. The most common protractor is a half-circle with degrees marked from 0 to 180. Most protractors mark degrees in both directions, creating a double row of numbers. So it is important to assess whether the angle is smaller or larger than 90 degrees (a right angle) before deciding which row of numbers to use. Full circle, round protractors can also be found, which will be marked up to 360 degrees. Bevel Protractors have swinging arms to help measure the angle. Because these types of protractors have moving parts, they are classified as mechanical protractors.Navigational PlotterAviators use a navigational plotter to help plot their course. A typical navigational plotter looks much like an ordinary plotter attached to the top of a ruler. A fixed plotter has the half-circle protractor directly over the ruler, while a rotating plotter uses a circle (or round) protractor attached to the ruler. Because aviators use both statue (standard) miles and nautical miles for their measurements, plotters typically have both scales on them. The pilot places the hole in the protractor base of the plotter over a longitude line and then angles the ruler along the flight course marked on a sectional. The pilot can read the true course where the longitude line intersects the protractor (or plotter's azimuth).The SextantSextant is Latin for one sixth. The instrument's scale measures 60 degrees, or one sixth of a circle. Sextants have been used by navigators at sea for centuries. The instrument measures the altitude of a celestial object, such as the sun, above the horizon. Navigators use this angle along with the time of day (or night) to calculate their position line on a nautical chart. Commonly, sailors calculated their latitude by sighting (measuring with the sextant) the sun at noon. The sextant could also be laid on its side and used horizontally against charts to measure angles, such as the angle between two objects. Using it this way, navigators were able to calculate their position.The TheodoliteA theodolite is a field instrument used by surveyors, generally set up on a tripod for stability. It is composed of a movable telescope mounted within two axes, a horizontal axis and a perpendicular vertical axis. They are used to determine line of sight and for measuring the angles between survey marks. They accurately measure both vertical and horizontal angles down to arc seconds and are particularly useful when measuring inaccessible ground. While theodolites are key for engineering and surveying, they have also been adapted for use by other fields, such as meteorology and rocket launch technology.Miter SawBuilders use the miter saw (also spelled "mitre" saw) for making angled cuts in wood. Because the saw's angle-measuring component resembles a box, the saw is also called a miter box. The wood is held against a straight piece, called the fence. The miter saw's blade (usually a circular blade) cuts at an angle to the fence, making a vertical cut. This angle can be adjusted by one degree increments. There are usually "stops" built into the box at commonly cut angles, such as 45 degrees. At the standard position, the miter saw makes a 90 degree cut. A compound miter saw also allows for angle changes to be made in cutting on the horizontal plane. This can be used to make beveled cuts. A slide allows the saw to make cuts longer than the blade's diameter. When the latter two features are combined, the saw is called a sliding compound miter saw.

What is a sliding tessellation?

A sliding tessellation is one in which the tessera can only be moved (slid) horizontally or vertically. Reflection or rotation are not permitted.


What are examples of glide reflections?

Examples of glide reflections include sliding a shape along a line while also reflecting it across that line. For instance, sliding and reflecting a triangle across a mirror line simultaneously creates a glide reflection. Another example could involve sliding and reflecting a letter along a surface, resulting in a glide reflection transformation.


What path does a vertex of a square trace?

It depends on what the motion is. If the square is sliding along a straight line then the path of the vertex is a straight line. If the square is rotating, the answer will vary according to the location of the centre of rotation.


What is mathematical term for translation?

a transformation that involves a sliding movement of a figure.


What are transformation?

shown on graphs . 3 types : translation , rotaation , reflection x , y - -x ,y = reflection over y axis x,y- y,-x = reflection over x- axis translation= x,y - x+ or - horizontal change , y+ or - vertical change Perfect reflection= x,y - y,-x 180 degree rotation = x,y - -x , -y 90 degree clockwise rotation=x,y - y , -x 90 degree counter clockwise rotation = x,y - -y,x when graphing transformations , label the new image points as primes . When theres more then one prime , up the amount. Ex: A(1,0) becomes A'(A prime) (-1,0) hope this helps!

Can the center window be replaced with a rear sliding window on a Ford F-250?

I just shattered the rear sliding window of my Ford F250 and was told by Dave of Quality Glass in LaPorte IN that the current generation of rear sliding windows are designed so the glass cannot be removed to be replaced, so the answer given me was, I need to purchase a new sliding window assembly. I checked into replacing the sliding window with just straight glass and it actually cost me more than aftermarket sliding windows. This is not the definitive answer, but the working answer in my situation.


Is sliding on ice the same as sliding on water?

Similar but not the same. First rule: Don't panic, get skid under control. Second rule: Apply the first rule. Sliding on water is purely down to speed. The faster you go the less ability the tyres have to dispel the water. A cushion of water builds between the tyre and the road, traction is lost and aquaplaning (sliding) results. Don't brake, hold the wheel straight, take the foot off the gas and the car will come back under control very quickly. Sliding on ice can happen at any speed and black ice cannot be seen. Take the foot off the gas, reduce speed and do not brake, turn into the skid and gently accelerate until under control. Aim straight and (if no ABS) quickly pump the brakes until the vehicle stops. If ABS, aim straight and brake normally.
