The Reflex Angle of Concave Quadrilateral is the angle formed between both the inner sides of the figure which measures more than 180 degree and less than 360 degree.
The calculator uses the formula:
Where:
Explanation: The formula calculates the reflex angle by subtracting the sum of the three acute angles from the full circle (2π radians).
Details: Calculating the reflex angle is important for understanding the complete angular properties of concave quadrilaterals and for various geometric applications in mathematics and engineering.
Tips: Enter all three acute angles in radians. Ensure all values are valid (non-negative angles). The calculator will compute the reflex angle of the concave quadrilateral.
Q1: What is a concave quadrilateral?
A: A concave quadrilateral is a four-sided polygon with at least one interior angle greater than 180 degrees, causing the shape to "cave in" at that angle.
Q2: Why use radians instead of degrees?
A: Radians are the standard unit of angular measurement in mathematics, particularly in trigonometric functions and calculus.
Q3: What is the range of possible reflex angles?
A: Reflex angles in a concave quadrilateral range between π and 2π radians (180° and 360°).
Q4: Can all three acute angles be zero?
A: No, the sum of the three acute angles must be less than 2π radians for a valid concave quadrilateral.
Q5: How do I convert degrees to radians?
A: Multiply degrees by π/180 to convert to radians (e.g., 180° = π radians).
