Central angle intersection points and of the legs of the angle with the circle form a diameter, then is a straight angle. (In radians, .) Let be the minor arc of the circle between points and , and let be the radius of the circle. If the central angle is subtended by , then If the central angle is not subtended by the minor arc , then is a reflex angle and If a tangent at and a tangent at intersect at the exterior point , then denoting the center as , the angles (convex) and are supplementary (sum to 180°). A
Caster angle to move the steering wheel both into and out of each turn, making it difficult to maintain a straight line. In the context of bicycles and motorcycles, caster is more commonly referred to as "head angle", "rake angle" or "rake and trail", especially in American English. The terms caster or castor angle are still predominantly used in British English. Some bicycle constructors refer to the angle subtended by the mechanical trail at the wheel center as caster. Caster angle The caster angle or castor angle is the angular displacement of the steering axis from the vertical axis of a steered
