A terminal degree is defined as the "highest" degree available in a particular field. A Ph.D. (Doctor of Philosophy) is an oft mentioned terminal degree in several fields of study. Other terminal degrees include: DA, DBA, Ed.D., DEng, DM, DMus, DMA, DPS, DSc, MD, DPH, et al. The purpose of a terminal degree is to ensure the highest level of competence in a particular discipline and to certify the person's ability to think independently. According to etiquette, only terminal degrees may follow a person's name, e.g., Jane Doe, Ph.D. Most, if not all, terminal degrees merit an earned (as opposed to inherited) title, such as Dr. Jane Doe.

How do you convert angle degrees to mm offset if you know the length of the side?
This question is ambiguous. If you have an original side, and you know the terminal (final) side, and you know the terminal angle (between the two sides), then there's really not that much more. For rectangular coordinates (x and y) of offsets, use sines and cosines. Vertical offset is (terminal sidelength)*sin(DEGREE MEASURE) Horizontal offeset is (terminal sidelength)*cos(DEGREE MEASURE)
How do you know positive and negative terminals?
Look for a + by the positive terminal and a - by the negative terminal, or red for positive, black for negative. Some batteries have the positive terminal protruding and the negative terminal flat. Or you can get a meter that will tell you which is which,
Why is ninety degree not taken as the angle of reference?
in trig a reference angle is ised to create a reference triangle in the first quadrant by using any point except the origin that lies on the terminal side of the ref. angle and drawing a perpendicular to the x-axis. for 90 degrees the terminal side is the y-axis and the perpendicular would not create a triangle, but just retrace the y-axis.
Why is there a plus and minus of batteries?
plus is the positive terminal (cathode) minus is the negative terminal (anode)
Is a terminal a square root?
No.
