If the angle is a lone, random angle, I believe you would need a protractor to determine the precise size of the angle (in "degrees"). However, you could, in this case, roughly guess as to whether the angle is acute, obtuse, or right (if the little rectangle is shown in the angle). Of course, if an angle is in a position where one can determine its measure using known postulates or theorems, finding the size of this angle becomes much easier. For example, if you know the measure of one angle and you must determine the measure of another angle, but these two angles are vertical angles, or are corresponding angles (by the corresponding angles postulate), you can indeed determine the measure of this angle without a protractor. Additionally, another example is that if you knew a pair of angles were either supplementary angles, complementary angles, or a linear pair, and you were given the measure of one of these angles, you could determine the measure of the other angle without a protractor. Therefore, it depends on the angle you're looking at.

How do you find a 30 degree angle without a protractor?

It is easy to draw an equilateral triangle without a protractor. That gives a 60 degree angle. It is then simply a matter of bisecting the 60 degree angle, using an unmarked rule and compass, to get a 30 degree angle.


How can you find right angles without using a protractor?

You can never really be certain about the measure of an angle without using a protractor, or some similar tool. Usually, you can try to "eyeball" it, though. Just remember that a right angle is the same as an angle in a square. It is also a quarter of a whole revolution.

How do you find angle measures without using a protractor?

To find angle measures without a protractor, you can use geometric principles and tools like a compass and straightedge. For instance, you can create congruent angles by copying an angle using a compass, or use the properties of triangles, such as the fact that the sum of the interior angles in a triangle is always 180 degrees. Additionally, you can apply trigonometric ratios in right triangles if you have side lengths available.
