An angle is positive when it is measured in a counter-clockwise direction. It is negative when it is measured in a clock-wise direction.

What does a zero angle look like?
A zero angle is a straight positive line. The x coordinate is positive and y is zero. In addition, zero angle is a coterminal of 360 degree angle meaning that they lie in the same position.zero angle.------------------>An angle whose measure is 0 degrees is called zero angle.
Is there a positive or a negative angle?
Yes. Angles may be measured from the direction of the positive horizontal axis and, clockwise is negative, anticlockwise is positive.
How do you describe the direction of rotation when the measure of an angle is positive?
Anticlockwise.
What is the least positive angle measure that is coterminal with -59pi/6?
-65
Positive and negative angles?
In the Cartesian plane, an angle is measured in the anti-clockwise direction from the x-axis. A negative angle is measured in the clockwise direction from the x-axis. However, an angle is effectively the same if you add or subtract 360 degrees. So, if you are faced with a negative angle just keep adding 360 degrees until you have a positive value.
What is angle up?
a positive one!
What is cos of a negative angle?
The cosine function is an even function which means that cos(-x) = cos(x). So, if cos of an angle is positive, then the cos of the negative of that angle is positive and if cos of an angle is negative, then the cos of the negative of that angle is negaitive.
What are positive and negative angle?
positive and negative angles of 87 degrees
Is a zero degree angle better than a positive or negative angle?
Better for what?
What does a zero angle look like?
A zero angle is a straight positive line. The x coordinate is positive and y is zero. In addition, zero angle is a coterminal of 360 degree angle meaning that they lie in the same position.zero angle.------------------>An angle whose measure is 0 degrees is called zero angle.
What is difference between positive and negative rake angle?
The clear difference between positive and negative rake angles is that for the positive rake angle,the leading edge of the cutting tool is behind the perpendicular of the material to be cut.While the tool leading edge is ahead or beyond the perpendicular for the negative rake angle.
Why the value of cos positive for negative value of angle?
The cosine of an angle is the adjacent side of the angle of a triangle divided the hypotenuse. If you plot the adjacent side as x on an x -y graph, for negative angles less than 90 degrees the adjacent side is positive and the hypotenuse is always positive, so you get a positive. The cosine is positive int e upper right and lower right quadrants
Is there a positive or a negative angle?
Yes. Angles may be measured from the direction of the positive horizontal axis and, clockwise is negative, anticlockwise is positive.
What is the difference between angle of attack and positive angle of attack?
Angle of attack may be negative or positive - it's simply the angle between the wing chord line and the oncoming airflow. If it's positive then the aircraft will benefit from the lift that is provided, if it's negative then there is no lift (but there's still drag). This is a potentially dangerous situation, unless you wish your aircraft to descend.
How do you describe the direction of rotation when the measure of an angle is positive?
Anticlockwise.
What is 10 a degree angle?
A line which rotates through an angle of 10 degree with the positive side of the x-axis of the Cartesian plane is called a 10 degree angle.
What is the measure of 1 angle?
That would depend on the angle. Any positive number up to and including 360 is possible. (I don't think you can have a zero degree angle.)
