Angle B of Quadrilateral is the space between two intersecting lines (side a and side b) or surfaces at or close to the point where they meet in a quadrilateral shape.
The calculator uses the formula:
Where:
Explanation: This formula calculates Angle B based on the supplementary relationship with Angle D in a quadrilateral.
Details: Accurate angle calculation is crucial for geometric analysis, quadrilateral classification, and solving various mathematical problems involving quadrilaterals.
Tips: Enter Angle D value in radians. The value must be a positive number greater than 0.
Q1: Why use radians instead of degrees?
A: Radians are the standard unit of angular measurement in mathematical calculations and provide more precise results in trigonometric functions.
Q2: What is the range of valid Angle D values?
A: Angle D must be between 0 and π radians (0-180 degrees) for a valid quadrilateral angle.
Q3: Can this formula be used for all types of quadrilaterals?
A: This specific formula applies to quadrilaterals where angles B and D are supplementary, which is true for cyclic quadrilaterals.
Q4: How accurate is the calculation?
A: The calculation uses PHP's built-in M_PI constant which provides high precision (approximately 3.1415926535898).
Q5: What if I have angles in degrees?
A: Convert degrees to radians first using the formula: radians = degrees × π/180 before using this calculator.
