angle

Inline mode usage:

angle -h

Displays the help file that summarizes the parameters for this command.

angle <x1 y1 z1> <x2 y2 z2> <x3 y3 z3> <x4 y4 z4>

Calculates the angle between the vectors. <x1 y1 z1> and <x2 y2 z2> refer to the initial and final Cartesian coordinates of first vector and <x3 y3 z3> and <x4 y4 z4> refer to the initial and final Cartesian coordinates of second vector, respectively.

Invocation

angle

Parameters

• Initial coordinate for the first vector: x1 y1 z1.
• Final coordinate for the first vector: x2 y2 z2.
• Initial coordinate for the second vector: x3 y3 z3.
• Final coordinate for the second vector: x4 y4 z4.

All coordinates are specified by writing each of their three spatial components separated by a blank space.

Example:

>angle

Select first point for first vector [x y z] 0 0 0

Select second point for first vector [x y z] 3 0 0

Select first point for second vector [x y z] 0 0 0

Select second point for second vector [x y z] 0 2 0

The angle between given points is 90.0
