In the angle discrimination section of achiever, it says " measurement of angle is inversely proportional to the sharpness of the angle."

What sharpness they are talking about?

:confused:

Probably trying to say that the sharper than angle is, the bigger the degree.

If an angle is sharp ("high" in sharpness), its measurement is "low", and vice versa.

thanks...but i got that...
the thing which i cant get is what "sharpness" are they talking about?

What they are trying to say is a smaller angle will have more pixels in the middle.

I think I may be misunderstanding your question, but isn't it the sharpness of the tip where the two lines join?

sharper = smaller angle

I think what they mean is the "pixelation" (yes I just made that word up). The more jaggedy the lines look, the greater the angle.

Something I noticed while doing angle problems is that the more time I spend looking at them, the more I get wrong. You want to look at them quickly, go with your gut instinct and move on. Save the time for keyholes and pattern folding, I find them to be trickier.
