 Angle of parallelism - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
In hyperbolic geometry, the angle of parallelism Φ is the angle at one vertex of a right hyperbolic triangle that has two hyperparallel sides.
The angle depends on the segment length a between the right angle and the vertex of the angle of parallelism Φ.
The angle at the center of Q subtended by the radius to (0, y) is also Φ because the two angles have sides that are perpendicular, left side to left side, and right side to right side.

 Caster angle - Wikicars
Caster (or castor) angle is the angular displacement from the vertical axis of the suspension of a steered wheel in a car or other vehicle, measured in the longitudinal direction.
It is the angle between the pivot line (an imaginary line that runs through the center of the upper ball joint to the center of the lower ball joint) and vertical.
The pivot points of the steering are angled such that a line drawn through them intersects the road surface slightly ahead of the contact point of the wheel.

Also, the angle adjustment mechanism, which consists of a pair of angle adjustment portions driven in an arc form in the direction perpendicular to each other, enables three-dimensional adjustment of the relative position of the surface of the workpiece to be lapped and the surface of the lapping plate.
On the bridge 5, a reciprocating motion drive unit 7 consisting of a linear actuator is installed, and an angle adjustment mechanism 4 comprising two gonio-stages 4a and 4b is mounted on a slider table 15 of the reciprocating motion drive unit 7.
After the above-described angle adjustment (parallelism) of the surface of workpiece to be lapped and the surface of lapping plate is made by using the completely fixed abrasive lapping plate prepared as described above, the workpiece is brought into contact with the lapping plate 8 and is lapped.

The students will be able to measure and find the sum of the angles of a triangle, construct tiling patterns from several polygons (squares, rectangles, parallelograms, right triangles, non-right triangles), review various geometric concepts (parallel lines, congruent angles, shape identification), and also discover new patterns and properties, in particular "saws" and " ladders".
Supporting Materials Needed: straws or d-stix, protractor, acetate angle measure overlays, unmarked clock face, overlay divided onto fifteen degree angle increments, overlay that is divided into 360 degrees, Pattern Blocks, square grid, pictures of tiling patterns, rectangular grid, triangular grid, overlay of saws and ladders, colored pencils.
Finally, a triangle is shown with only two angle measurements identified and students are asked to predict the measurement of the unmarked angle.They are then asked to explain their reasoning.

Upon the other side of the perpendicular EE' will in like manner the prolongations AH' and AK' of the parallels AH and AK likewise be parallel to BC; the remaining lines pertain, if in the angle K'AH', to the intersecting, but if in the angles K'AE, H'AE' to the non-intersecting.
For both assumptions it serves as the mark of parallelism that the line becomes intersecting for the smallest deviation toward the side where lies the parallel, so that if AH is parallel to DC, every line AF cuts DC, how small soever the angle HAF may be.

For example, in the Klein model, constructing segments and lines is trivial, dropping and raising perpendiculars is fairly straightforward, measuring angles can provide a nice application of hyperbolic trigonometry, and drawing circles is hard.
In hyperbolic geometry, if m and m' are parallel lines for which there exists a pair of points A and B on m equidistant from m', then m and m' have a common perpendicular that is also the shortest segment between m and m'.
A second, slightly more advanced exercise is, given two points P and Q in a model, to have students construct and measure the angle of parallelism corresponding to segment PQ.

In the Klein model, for example, constructing lines and segments are trivial, calculating lengths, dropping and raising perpendiculars is relatively straightforward, while calculating angle measure, constructing midpoints, angle bisectors, and circles is quite challenging.
On the other hand, calculating angle measure in the Poincaré models is relatively straightforward since these models are conformal, while in the Klein model, this action requires the use of hyperbolic trigonometry.
In my classroom, I have had students develop the tools for constructing lines and segments in the three models as an introduction to the models and to writing scripts in Geometer's Sketchpad after reading the appropriate section of Greenberg for the Poincaré disk construction.
