Outer Angle of Polygram given Chord Length Solution

STEP 0: Pre-Calculation Summary

Formula Used

Outer Angle of Polygram = arccos(((2*Edge Length of Polygram^2)-Chord Length of Polygram^2)/(2*Edge Length of Polygram^2))
∠_Outer = arccos(((2*l_e^2)-l_c^2)/(2*l_e^2))
This formula uses 2 Functions, 3 Variables

Functions Used

cos - Cosine of an angle is the ratio of the side adjacent to the angle to the hypotenuse of the triangle., cos(Angle)
arccos - Arccosine function, is the inverse function of the cosine function.It is the function that takes a ratio as an input and returns the angle whose cosine is equal to that ratio., arccos(Number)

Variables Used

Outer Angle of Polygram - (Measured in Radian) - The Outer Angle of Polygram is the angle between any two adjacent isosceles triangles which forms the spikes of the Polygram.
Edge Length of Polygram - (Measured in Meter) - The Edge Length of Polygram is the length of any edge of the Polygram shape, from one end to other end.
Chord Length of Polygram - (Measured in Meter) - The Chord Length of Polygram is the distance between any two adjacent spike tips of the Polygram from one tip to other tip.

STEP 1: Convert Input(s) to Base Unit

Edge Length of Polygram: 5 Meter --> 5 Meter No Conversion Required
Chord Length of Polygram: 8 Meter --> 8 Meter No Conversion Required

STEP 2: Evaluate Formula

Substituting Input Values in Formula

∠_Outer = arccos(((2*l_e^2)-l_c^2)/(2*l_e^2)) --> arccos(((2*5^2)-8^2)/(2*5^2))

Evaluating ... ...

∠_Outer = 1.85459043600322

STEP 3: Convert Result to Output's Unit

1.85459043600322 Radian -->106.260204708332 Degree (Check conversion here)

FINAL ANSWER

106.260204708332 ≈ 106.2602 Degree <-- Outer Angle of Polygram

What is Polygram ?

→ A Polygram is a regular n-sided polygon with identical isosceles triangles (also known as SPIKES) attached to each edge. → It looks like a n-pointed star. → For a n-pointed star, there will be n-spikes. → The Spike (Isosceles Triangle) is an important part of the polygram and it is defined using 4 parameters. They are : 1) The Base Length of the Triangle (a.k.a Base Length of the Polygram) 2) Length of the equal side of the triangle (a.k.a Edge Length of the Polygram) 3) Angle between the two equal sides of the isosceles triangle (a.k.a Inner Angle angle of the Polygram) 4) Height of the triangle (a.k.a Spike Height) Apart from these there are other important parameters that define the Polygram. They are: 1) Outer Angle : The angle between two adjacent isosceles triangles. 2) Chord Length : The distance between two peaks of the adjacent Spikes of the Polygram. 3) Perimeter : The sum of lengths of all the edges of the polygram. 4) Area : The amount of space occupied by the polygram.
