Q

A tool used for measuring, or laying out angles is called a __________.

🔍 Key Concepts

• Basic drafting and navigation tools used for chart work • Which instruments are designed specifically to measure angles versus length or thickness • Common shipboard tools for precision measurement

💭 Think About

• Which of these tools is commonly found in a basic student geometry set for measuring angles on paper or charts? • Which tools in the list are primarily used for measuring distance, diameter, or thickness rather than angles? • Think about which instrument has a circular or semi‑circular scale marked in degrees.

✅ Before You Answer

• Identify which option is traditionally marked in degrees (°) for angle measurement • Eliminate any tools that are mainly for linear dimensions (length, inside/outside diameter, thickness) • Consider which tool you would naturally use to measure the angle between two lines on a chart or drawing
