There are at least 5 tool angles for a single point cutting tool, which one are you referring to?
The geometry which describes the various cutting angles of the single point cutting tools is known as tool geometry.For further information consult your teacher and if you get a better answer than this please tell me...................

It is the angle between face of the tool and a plane perpendicular to the side of the shank.It varies from 5 to 15 degrees.
Indicates that the plane which forms the flank has been ground back at an angle to the side of the shank
n is found by using experimental data. The whole point of Taylor's tool life equation is to predict the tool life for different spindle speeds.

A dull tool can lead to negative rake angles because as the cutting edge wears down, it may no longer maintain the optimal cutting geometry. This wear causes the angle between the cutting edge and the workpiece to become steeper, resulting in a negative rake angle. Negative rake angles can increase cutting forces and heat generation, leading to poor surface finishes and reduced tool life. Consequently, using a dull tool can hinder machining efficiency and effectiveness.
Relief or clearance angles are designed to prevent parts of a cutting tool from rubbing against the workpiece, allowing for efficient cutting action. If these angles were zero or negative, the tool would not have enough clearance, leading to excessive friction and wear, which would hinder performance and reduce tool life. Additionally, insufficient clearance could cause the tool to bind or break during operation, compromising both safety and effectiveness. Thus, positive relief angles are essential for optimal cutting conditions.
The numerical code that describes all the key angles of a given cutting tool. A tool signature may be used for HSS or carbide inserts.
