Did you know when you are snowboarding you have to use geometry? When you are doing tricks you have to measure how many degrees you have to turn. Here is a easy way to understand all of the tricks.

If you were doing a 90 degree turn, you can try to think of it like a clock. If you were at twelve, going all the way to three would be 90 degrees. Here are some pictures to help you understand this.

 

 

Now here are some more numbers of degrees that we know. Do you know what a 180 is? When you are counting on the clock a one eighty would be half an hour.

 

A turn that is two hundred seventy degrees would be 45 minutes.

A three sixty is when you are at twelve and you go around the entire clock one time.

 

On the clock a five forty would be one and a half hours.

 

A seven twenty would be two hours on the clock.
