Outside scale from
0o to 180o going in a
clockwise direction.
4
Inside scale from
0o to 180o going in an
anti-clockwise direction.
 You need to be able to measure an angle to the nearest
degree. To help you do this you should always:
1. Look directly down onto the cross point.

2. Always use the protractor in a horizontal manner as shown
below.

steps
• Step 1
Place the centre point of the

protector on the vertex of the
angle.

• Step 2
Adjust the protector so tat 1 ar
of the angle is along the baseline.

– Look at the scale where

the baseline arm points to .
