So if you're like me you probably don't carry around a protractor everywhere you go

0:00:04.204,0:00:08.609
and even if you do, you sometimes you want to have only the angles you want, because you needed a whole bunch

0:00:08.609,0:00:14.248
without all those other degrees getting in the way. This is the need that the Angle-A-Tron fufills.

0:00:14.248,0:00:19.987
A protractor is kinda like a 180 degree Angle-A-Tron. It's great at 180 degrees.

0:00:19.987,0:00:23.359
You can make your own 180 degree Angle-A-Tron super easily from any piece of paper.

0:00:23.359,0:00:27.294
Even if your paper doesn't have an edge, you can just fold it and ta-da Angle-A-Tron!

0:00:27.294,0:00:31.602
One extremely useful Angle-A-Tron is the 90 degree Angle-A-Tron.

0:00:31.602,0:00:34.935
Many pieces of paper come pre-equipped with one of these,

0:00:34.935,0:00:39.039
but, if they dont, you can get one by folding a 180 degree Angle-A-Tron in half.

0:00:39.039,0:00:42.543
Now, you can draw all sorts of "rectangley things" and "perpendicularites".

0:00:42.543,0:00:47.180
Following the "fold stuff in half" method you can get a 45 degree Angle-A-Tron pretty easily,

0:00:47.180,0:00:51.552
or a 22.5 degrees, or a 11.25, and so on.

0:00:51.552,0:00:55.556
And you get these weird looking numbers, but that's only because we started with something

0:00:55.556,0:00:58.692
arbitrary, like 360 degrees, when, really the numbers we are looking at

0:00:58.692,0:01:01.562
are a half, a fourth, an eighth, a sixteenth,

0:01:01.562,0:01:05.098
you know, one over two to the n. It's not hard to fold paper into thirds, either.

0:01:05.098,0:01:08.035
Might take a litte evening out, then BAM!

0:01:08.035,0:01:11.838
180 degrees turns into 60 degrees, good for making equilateral triangles.

0:01:11.838,0:01:15.709
Or put two together and get 120 degrees, a very common and useful angle.

0:01:15.709,0:01:18.912
For when, say, bubbles meet, If you're drawing bubbles. Or honeycombs, or something.

0:01:18.912,0:01:25.085
Then you can start adding them together, 135 degrees is easy, 90 degrees plus 45 degrees.

0:01:25.085,0:01:31.319
Now you can make puzzles for yourself. Say you make a 60 degree Angle-A-Tron, and a 135 degree Angle-A-Tron,

0:01:31.503,0:01:35.462
How do you make an Angle-A-Tron that completes the circle?

0:01:35.462,0:01:40.734
Or, if a friend gives you an Angle-A-Tron, can you make a Complementary, or supplementary, I forget which is which,

0:01:40.734,0:01:46.186
Angle-A-Tron? And then, let me know if this is going a little bit too far, maybe you can put an Angle-A-Tron on

0:01:46.186,0:01:51.655
your Angle-A-Tron. And now, I have a 60 degrees, and another 60 degrees, which comes over here,

0:01:51.655,0:01:56.416
to make another 60 degrees, and now I have an equilateral Triangle Polygon-A-Tron!

0:01:56.416,0:02:00.416
And just in case you thought that wasn't going to far, Why not make that a Polyhedron-A-Tron?
