Yes, although it may seem strange.
Conventionally, on a Cartesian plane, angles are measured in an anticlockwise dirction, from the x-axis. Consequently, an angle in the clockwise direction could be considered a negative angle. It might be simpler to think of an angle of 359 degrees as one of -1 degrees, instead.
Sometimes you need to subtract one angle from another and in that context, a negative measure for the angle is implicit.

What does the phrase 'angle sum' mean?
It means the sum of the angle measurements.
What are the interior angle measurements for each angle of a regular pentagon?

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 the angle measurements for a regular triangle?

What are the angle measurements of a quadrilateral?
Quadrilaterals have a constant total angle measurement of 360 degrees
What are 4 benchmarks angle measurements?
um is it 60
What are the measurements of each angle of a hexagon?

What are the measurements of a right angle?

What are the four angle measurements of a quadrilateral?
360 degrees
What is the angle called when its between these measurements 35 and 55?
A complimentary angle which adds up to 90 degrees
