This is another one of those questions which I can in no wise even begin to

answer, but which I suspect would quickly become a veritable piece o'cake

if I could but see the vector in its coordinate space for only an instant.

Can an angle be negative?

Visually it doesn't make sense for an angle to be negative. However we often measure angles off of some axis, such as the x-axis, and positive angles go around counter-clockwise, while negative angles go around clockwise. Outside of the context of a Cartesian Coordinate system (x-y plane), negative angles don't generally make sense.


How do you work out angles with only numbers. for example im trying to make a 30 degree angle with only a straight ruler is it possible for me to work a height and apply the angle?

For certain angles, the answer is yes. For 30o to the horizontal (in the positive x direction), you need to measure the horizontal distance to be twice the vertical distance. For example, draw a triangle with a base length of 10cm and, at a right angle to the base, measure a height of 5cm. The angle to the horizontal (the smaller angle) will be 30o. (The opposite is true for the angle of 60o).


Which one is the x-axis?

The x axis is the horizontal (flat, bottom, left-right) axis generally, though sometimes they are manipulated to make math easier. -the x axis sometimes represents time The y axis is the vertical (up-down) one.


Is a positive plus a negative make a positive or a negative?

Positive + Negative = Negative Negative + Negative = Positive Positive + Positive = Positive Negative + Positive = Negative


What angle with a measure of 92 degrees?

Obtuse angle (here is the formula) -: 90° = Right angle and if you don't know the obtuse angle is more than 90° so adding 2 will make it an obtuse angle.
