To determine the angle for cutting, divide 180 degrees by the number of sides in the shape you’re working with and then divide the result by 2.
The Angle Cut Calculator is an essential tool for carpenters, DIY enthusiasts, and professionals in construction. It simplifies the process of determining the correct angle for cutting wood, pipes, or other materials.
Formula
A = 180 / S / 2
Variable | Description |
---|---|
A | Cutting angle (degrees) |
S | Number of sides or divisions |
Solved Calculations
Example 1: Cutting Angles for a Square Frame
Step | Value |
---|---|
Number of Sides (S) | 4 |
Angle (A) | 180 ÷ 4 ÷ 2 = 22.5° |
Example 2: Cutting Angles for an Octagonal Table
Step | Value |
---|---|
Number of Sides (S) | 8 |
Angle (A) | 180 ÷ 8 ÷ 2 = 11.25° |
