Will you help me with these Geometry billiards problems?

Filed Under Billiards 

Griffin Henderson asked:


I’m in Honors Geography 8th grade and I’m very confused by these two questions. It shows you a picture of the pool table all set up, and the guy about to shoot the ball. It asks you if the 4 ball or whatever will make it into the corner pocket, but I have no idea how I’m supposed to solve this. It says to use a protractor. Please help me!

Also is it pathetic that I’m already having trouble with Geometry on the 3rd day?

      The angle of the angle of the corner pocket hence use the protractor.
