To find the angle measure using a protractor, you will need to follow these steps:

1. Place the Protractor: Position the protractor on the angle you want to measure, ensuring the midpoint (the small hole or line at the bottom) aligns with the angle’s vertex.

2. Align One Ray: One ray of the angle should align with the baseline (the straight edge) of the protractor.

3. Read the Measure: Look at where the other ray intersects the numbered scale on the protractor. If it aligns with the outer scale, read it directly; if it aligns with the inner scale, use that value.

4. Determine the Degree: For your specific angles:

– 60°: The reading where it intersects is 60°.

– 75°: The reading shows 75°.

– 85°: The angle measures 85°.

– 90°: This is a right angle and will read as 90°.
