Evaluate

Basic Examples

Compute the supplement of an angle:
[◼]
SupplementaryAngleDegree
[30]
In[]:=
150
Out[]=

Scope

SupplementaryAngleDegree
works directly on
Quantity
expressions with units of “
AngularDegrees
”:
[◼]
SupplementaryAngleDegree
[Quantity[12,"AngularDegrees"]]
In[]:=
168°
Out[]=
SupplementaryAngleDegree
works directly on DMS lists of the type returned by
DMSList
:
dmsList=DMSList[112.7]
In[]:=
{112,42,0.}
Out[]=
ResourceFunction["ReferenceAngleDegree"][dmsList]
{67,17,60.}
Out[]=
SupplementaryAngleDegree
works directly on DMS strings of the type returned by
DMSString
:
dmsString=DMSString[65.3]
In[]:=
65°18'0.000"
Out[]=
[◼]
SupplementaryAngleDegree
[dmsString]
In[]:=
114°42'0.000"
Out[]=

Properties and Relations

SupplementaryAngleDegree
will remain unevaluated for non-numeric input:
[◼]
SupplementaryAngleDegree
[a]
In[]:=
[◼]
SupplementaryAngleDegree
[a]
Out[]=
SupplementaryAngleDegree
will return a negative result if the input angle is greater than
180°
:
[◼]
SupplementaryAngleDegree
[250]
In[]:=
-70
Out[]=
For negative input,
SupplementaryAngleDegree
returns a result greater than
180°
:
[◼]
SupplementaryAngleDegree
[-38]
In[]:=
218
Out[]=
For numeric input,
SupplementaryAngleDegree
is its own inverse:
r=RandomReal[{0,360}];​​
