How do you find the angle between planes in Solidworks?

How do you find the angle between two planes?

Angle Between Two Planes in Vector Form



For planes, r.n₁ = d₁ and r.n₂ = d₂, we will use the formula cos θ = |(n₁ . n₂)/(|n₁|. |n₂|), where n₁ , and n₂ are normal vectors to the two planes and θ is the angle between the two planes.
