Measuring and Drawing Angles with a Protractor

This video tutorial explains how to use a protractor to measure and draw angles. It begins with an introduction to the protractor, describing its parts and how it is used to measure angles. The tutorial then demonstrates how to measure both acute and obtuse angles accurately by aligning the protractor with the angle's vertex and zero line. Finally, it covers how to draw angles of specific degrees by using the protractor to mark the desired angle separation. The video emphasizes accuracy in measurement and drawing, suggesting tools like mechanical pencils for precision.

What is the primary use of a protractor?

• To measure the length of a line

• To create parallel lines

• To measure degrees of an angle

• To draw perfect circles
