How to use a protractor (online)

  1. Open the tool and, if needed, Open image to load a diagram or screenshot.
  2. Drag the three points (A–B–C). Keep B on the vertex; place A and C on the two rays.
  3. The angle label appears between the rays and updates live in degrees (or radians if toggled).
  4. Enable Snap 5° for neat values; use the grid for alignment; use Move all to reposition the entire protractor.
  5. Click Export PNG to download a clean image with the angle arc and label—perfect for reports, lessons, and measuring angles with a protractor worksheet.

FAQs: protractor, compass & online measuring

What is a protractor?
A protractor is a tool for measuring or drawing angles. Our online protractor provides the same functionality digitally with adjustable points, a grid, snapping, and export options.
How to use a protractor online?
Load (or skip) an image, then drag the three points so B is the vertex and A/C lie on each ray. Read the live angle in degrees or radians. Toggle Snap 5° for clean values, and use Export PNG to save.
Can I measure angles with a worksheet?
Yes. Import a worksheet screenshot and measure each problem using the draggable points. This is great for measuring angles with a protractor worksheet tasks.
What about compass and protractor activities?
You can combine this protractor tool with a drawing app or physical compass to construct arcs, then measure them accurately using the online protractor overlay.
Is there a downloadable protractor PNG?
Yes—use Export PNG. You’ll get a clean protractor png that includes your current angle arc and label for printing or documentation.
