Reply If you know the measurement along one side of a star point, then:So if you know the measurement of a Side, then you can add up the measurement from one point across to it's opposite point.
5. Creating a private sex tape can be sexy and thrilling for you both. Most angles have been measured correctly. Unfold your star. I had to look for Sebastopol... with Redwoods, that's gotta be in California. Use of protractor. If I had oodles of time, I'd like to create my own LED circuit for such a star. Ten times that number should be about ten feet for the perimeter, of course, almost a half inch over. Step 2: Measure the Angles for the Star Points.
1 year ago Have to wait to see if the math works. Or given one of the other dimensions, you can calculate the side. What about the sum of the angles in a five-pointed star?Create a 5-pointed star and then use the checkbox to "pin" the vertices down.Use the protractor to measure the five internal angles.Stars have not been labeled with angle letters and/or degree measurements.Stars are shown with their angles clearly labeled with the letter and the degrees measurement, but there are not enough stars included.Several stars are shown with their angles clearly labeled with a letter and the degrees measurement.All angles have been accurately measured with a protractor.Table is messy or is missing important information.Table is messy and hard to read, but has all information.Table includes all necessary information, but is not particularly neat.Table is neatly drawn with a title for each column. Use the following site for easy calculations for the dimensions of a 5-sided star:
Nearly every angle has been measured correctly.
Very helpful. Or given one of the other dimensions, you can calculate the side. I'll include a link when it's up. Reply
Maybe some other member here will get inspired and try that out. (See previous steps.) Plus whatever overlap or losses I'd have in real life, of course.If I choose to traverse the star by going from one point to another across the star to opposite points, how much wire would I need to complete the star? 1. Steel "earthquake" straps, 48" long with holes every inch, solve this problem: The five bolt ends fit nicely into the strap holes 36" apart.
After initial assembly, aligning star points is difficult, as every tube moves! That is one huge star! To get the perfect star shape, I googled it. I need to figure out the measurement of one Side of a "StarPoint" then I know I'll need TEN of those to complete the perimeter. Advertisement.
Your line will connect with the lower left corner of your drawing: "/". Reply 6. The parts of this Symmetrical Star are always in the same ratios or proportions to each other.
Table is messy or is missing important information. You could put an LED thru every hole, or at intervals, directly in the hurricane strips? (And don't forget, a photo of how you get that up to the top of a Redwood.) )Working backwards, if you know the height of the star, then: If I want a star that is 2.5 feet (30 inches) high, then... How much wire do I need to go around the perimeter? 1 year ago Method 2 of 4: Drawing a 6-Pointed Star. Because this angle is always the same, given only the measurement along one of the outer sides of the star, as long as it is a Symmetrical Star, you can calculate the other dimensions. After getting a good image, I cropped it to get the angles I needed. Length across to opposite point = 2.618 x 8.625" side = 22.58 inches And five times that to complete one pass around the star should have been 112.9 inches. There are several protractor mistakes. 1 year ago I then trimmed the paper to the largest size possible. Add lights after that. I honestly had to go back and read my own Instructable above, as it's been 10 months or more. ( Note that for a "Side," any two points along the perimeter would do, as long as they're neighbors. ) Writing is messy. 1 year ago
Kendall, do show us when you get your LED lights attached! long bolts; but they're not easily available. I need to figure out the length from one point to the opposite point, then multiply that by FIVE.Length Across to Opposite Point = Height / (.9511) For my 30" high star, 30"/.9511 is 28.533 inches, and five of those segments will complete a star.
Thanks, again, to Soose for his geometry discussions and guidance. Each exterior angle in a regular pentagon is equal to 360⁰/5 or 72⁰. In high-school and college, I still had a few of those skills, but at my present age, they are very rusty! Height = (One side of the star point) x (0.9511) x (2.618) = 8.625" x 0.9511 x 2.618 = 21.476" tall When we pull down the Christmas outside lights in January, I guess I'll find out how close I was. Table. Reply All angles have been accurately measured with a protractor. I did not worry about figuring out what angles the Again, it's 15 ft up in the air for now. Throw away the top pieces of paper so you only have the folded piece that’s pointing in your direction. What exterior angles are needed to make a 5-pointed star? The star's point-to-point distance calculates, for this example, close to 36 inches. :) I decided to make the individual “legs”, or chords of the star 12” in length for simplicity’s sake.
