Frequently Asked Questions

Common questions about Miter Angle Calculator, formulas, and expected usage.

How is miter angle calculated for a regular frame?

For an N-sided regular frame, miter angle = 180° / N, which is half of each exterior angle.

What is the difference between interior and miter angles?

Interior angle is the angle inside each corner; miter angle is the saw cut angle on each adjoining board end.

Can I use this for non-regular shapes?

No. This formula assumes all sides and corner angles are equal, as in regular polygons.

Why does a square use 45° miter cuts?

A square has four sides, so 180° ÷ 4 = 45° miter angle per piece end.
