  • candidate it's the angle which is naturally provided to carry something as word it self says carrying angle so caring it's must but should not exceed 15 and min should be 5 not less than 5 and to check you can use goniometer is you don't have take a scale of classmates geometry box names astroid and keep centre part on elbow and then put a protractor and measure if it exceeds more then increase your bicep it will be reduced ( your carrying angle) and if you have any doubt comment again I will reply... .

  • Hi Eakansh , carrying angel is a small degree of cubitus Vitus, formed between the axis of a radially deviated forearm and the axis of the humerus. It helps the arms to swing without hitting the hips while walking. Normally it is 5-15o away from the body or 165-175o towards the body. A decreased carrying angle can result in the forearm pointing towards the body, known as gunstock deformity or cubitus Vitus.
