Angles: Theta versus Projection
Geomet reports angles for 3D feature relationships such as a cylinder to a plane in either the Theta angle or PCS base plane Projection angles. The Theta angle is an angle smallest angle between the two features. The projection angles represent the angled projected into each of the PCS base planes
An example of the angle between a cylinder and a plane in the two reporting formats might look like:
Theta 27.0171º
AX/Y -11.3099º
AY/Z 5.7106º
AZ/X -26.5651º
