How to Measure This Angle on an Image or Photo

An obtuse angle is greater than 90° but less than 180°. Common examples include bay window wall angles (135°) and octagon corner joints. Position vertex B at the corner intersection to measure wide angles easily.

Step-by-Step Measurement Procedure

  1. Upload your image: Drag and drop a photo or blueprint onto the Online Protractor canvas.
  2. Position Point B (Vertex): Drag the central vertex dot directly onto the corner or angle origin.
  3. Align Ray A (Baseline): Drag the left handle so ray A aligns perfectly with your reference line.
  4. Adjust Ray C (Angle Ray): Drag the right handle until ray C lies exactly along the sloped edge.
  5. Read Angle Output: The tool displays degrees, radians, complementary, and supplementary angles in real time.
