I am sure you are a builder and have visited various construction sites. You have seen various angles and dimensions of building constructions. But what are those angles and what is the importance of those angles?

Here I am going to explain what interior angles are and how they are used in building construction.

Definition of interior angles

An interior angle is an angle between two lines. Two lines are called interior lines if they do not intersect with any exterior line. There are three types of interior angles:

Vertical angles

Horizontal angles

Diagonal angles

Let’s see what each type of angle is.

Vertical angles

Vertical angles are formed when the two lines are vertical. These angles are also known as ‘oblique’ angles.

Examples of vertical angles:

90 degrees

45 degrees

60 degrees

45 degrees is the most common angle which is used in most of the constructions.

Horizontal angles

A horizontal angle is formed when two lines are parallel to each other and are not intersecting.

Examples of horizontal angles:

45 degrees

45 degrees

60 degrees

These are the most common types of angles that are used in building constructions.

Diagonal angles

If the lines are not vertical or horizontal, then the angle is called diagonal.

Examples of diagonal angles:

45 degrees

45 degrees

60 degrees

It is very important to understand the different types of angles as they play a vital role in the construction of a building.

Conclusion:

So, these are the types of angles that are commonly used in the construction of a building.
