How did Mathematicians conclude that the angle around a straight line is 180 or 360?

Early mathematicians just chose 360 to be the number of degrees in a circle. Since a straight line corresponds to an angle where you've only rotated halfway around a circle, they said that a line had a 180 degree angle.

What is the angle of a straight angle?
A straight angle is 180 degrees.
Why is a straight angle not considered an angle in geometry?
A straight angle is an angle.
What is the Straight angle theorem?
A straight angle is an angle of 180 degrees
What is an angle called that measures 180 degrees?
An angle that measures 180 degrees is a straight angle, or straight line.Line.
What type of angle makes a straight line?
180 degrees -- a straight angle
What does a straight angle measure?
What does a straight angle measure?
An angle formed by opposite rays is a?
is called a straight angle
An angle whose sides make a line is called?
A 180 Degree angle therefore a straight line.
What is a 180 degrees angle called?
A straight angle also known as a line
What does a straight angle makes?
A straight angle (180 degrees) makes a perfectly straight line. Any degree below 180 degrees (0-179 degrees) is NOT a straight angle NOR a straight line. straight angle = 180 degrees straight angle = straight line 180 degrees
