Angle

Angle

  • Angular momentum
    In physics, angular momentum (rarely, moment of momentum or rotational momentum) is the rotational analog of linear momentum.
  • Pythagorean theorem
    In mathematics, the Pythagorean theorem, also known as Pythagoras's theorem, is a fundamental relation in Euclidean geometry among the three sides of a right triangle.
  • Right angle
    In geometry and trigonometry, a right angle is an angle that bisects the angle formed by two adjacent parts of a straight line.
  • Right ascension
    Right ascension (abbreviated RA; symbol α) is the angular distance measured eastward along the celestial equator from the vernal equinox to the hour circle of the point in question.
  • Solid angle
    In geometry, a solid angle (symbol: Ω) is the two-dimensional angle in three-dimensional space that an object subtends at a point.
  • Dihedral angle
    A dihedral angle is the angle between two intersecting planes.
  • Angular velocity
    In physics, the angular velocity is defined as the rate of change of angular displacement and is a vector quantity (more precisely, a pseudovector) which specifies the angular speed (rotational speed) of an object and the axis about which the object is rotating.
  • Conformal map
    In mathematics, a conformal map is a function that preserves angles locally.
  • Euler angles
    The Euler angles are three angles introduced by Leonhard Euler to describe the orientation of a rigid body.
  • Spherical angle
    A spherical angle is a particular dihedral angle; it is the angle between two intersecting arcs on a sphere, and is measured by the angle between the planes containing the arcs (which would naturally also contain the centre of the sphere).
  • Davenport chained rotations
    In physics and engineering, Davenport chained rotations are three chained intrinsic rotations about body-fixed specific axes.
