    Set square shaped as 45° - 45° - 90° triangle The side lengths of a 45° - 45° - 90° triangle 45° - 45° - 90° right triangle of hypotenuse length 1.. In plane geometry, dividing a square along its diagonal results in two isosceles right triangles, each with one right angle (90°, ⁠ π / 2 ⁠ radians) and two other congruent angles each measuring half of a right angle (45°, or ...

  5. Right angle - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Right_angle

    In geometry and trigonometry, a right angle is an angle of exactly 90 degrees or ⁠ / 2 ⁠ radians [1] corresponding to a quarter turn. [2] If a ray is placed so that its endpoint is on a line and the adjacent angles are equal, then they are right angles. [ 3 ]

  6. Perpendicular - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Perpendicular

    The segment AB is perpendicular to the segment CD because the two angles it creates (indicated in orange and blue) are each 90 degrees. The segment AB can be called the perpendicular from A to the segment CD, using "perpendicular" as a noun. The point B is called the foot of the perpendicular from A to segment CD, or simply, the foot of A on CD ...

  7. Set square - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Set_square

    These set squares come in two usual forms, both right triangles: one with 90-45-45 degree angles, the other with 30-60-90 degree angles. Combining the two forms by placing the hypotenuses together will also yield 15° and 75° angles. They are often purchased in packs with protractors and compasses.

    The presence of one or more 90° angles within a pictorial image is usually a good indication that the perspective is oblique. Various graphical projections and how they are produced Oblique projection of a cube with foreshortening by half, seen from the side Top view of a comparison of an oblique projection (left) and an orthographic ...

  9. Technical drawing - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Technical_drawing

    There are two conventions for using multiview, first-angle and third-angle. In both cases, the front or main side of the object is the same. First-angle is drawing the object sides based on where they land. Example, looking at the front side, rotate the object 90 degrees to the right. What is seen will be drawn to the right of the front side.
