Question Analysis

This question is about measuring an angle using a protractor.

 

Key Concept Explanation

A protractor has two scales (inner and outer) marked from 0° to 180°. To measure an angle, align one side with the 0° mark on the protractor and read the value where the other side intersects the appropriate scale.

 

Step - by - Step Solution

1. Determine the scale to use:

Since the initial side of the angle is lined up with the  mark on the left - hand side of the protractor, we should read the outer - ring scale.

 

2. Read the measurement:

Follow the terminal side of the angle to where it intersects the outer - ring scale. The terminal side intersects the outer - ring scale at
