Is an angle be negative?
Yes. Sometimes in mathematics, it is useful to have negative angles. You can increase or decrease an angle by 360 degrees (or 2*pi radians) without changing the characteristics of the angle. Thus, for example, an angle of 30 degrees is equivalent to an angle of -330 degrees.
Can an angle be negative in trigonometry?
no because the only way degrees can be negative is in temperature.
Can angle measurements be negative?
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.
Is zero degree an acute angle?
A non negative angle which is less than 90 degrees is an acute angle. So, Zero degree is an acute angle.
Why is the helix angle of a reamer negative?
The helix angle of reamer is negative because to make the reamer more regid so that the reamer can withstand the vibration during reaming
