angles_points_xy
- compas.geometry.angles_points_xy(a, b, c, deg=False)[source]
Compute the two angles between the two vectors defined by the XY components of three points.
- Parameters:
- a[float, float] or [float, float, float] |
compas.geometry.Point XY(Z) coordinates.
- b[float, float] or [float, float, float] |
compas.geometry.Point XY(Z) coordinates.
- c[float, float] or [float, float, float] |
compas.geometry.Point XY(Z) coordinates.
- degbool, optional
If True, returns the angle in degrees.
- a[float, float] or [float, float, float] |
- Returns:
- float
The smallest angle in radians, or in degrees if
deg == True.- float
The other angle.
Notes
The vectors are defined in the following way
\[\begin{split}\mathbf{u} = \mathbf{b} - \mathbf{a} \\ \mathbf{v} = \mathbf{c} - \mathbf{a}\end{split}\]Z components may be provided, but are simply ignored.
