Some angles that ease cutting operations include:
1. Cutting angle: The angle at which the cutting tool makes contact with the workpiece. A sharper cutting angle can help to reduce cutting forces and improve cutting efficiency.
2. Relief angle: The angle between the cutting edge and the surface of the workpiece. A larger relief angle can help to prevent the cutting edge from rubbing against the workpiece, reducing friction and heat generation.
3. Rake angle: The angle between the cutting edge and the direction of tool travel. A positive rake angle can help to reduce cutting forces and improve chip evacuation.
4. Clearance angle: The angle between the cutting edge and the workpiece surface behind the cutting edge. A larger clearance angle can help to prevent the cutting edge from rubbing against the workpiece, reducing friction and heat generation.
5. Helix angle: The angle at which the cutting edges are inclined relative to the axis of rotation. A higher helix angle can help to improve chip evacuation and reduce cutting forces.

Acute angles (less than 90 degrees) ease cutting operations because:
- Reduced Force Required: Acute angles create a smaller surface area between the cutting tool and the material, reducing the force required to cut through it.
- Sharper Cutting Edge: Acute angles ensure that the cutting edge of the tool remains sharper, resulting in cleaner and more accurate cuts.
- Less Strain on Tool: The reduced surface area and sharper cutting edge place less strain on the cutting tool, extending its lifespan.
- Better Control: Acute angles provide better control over the cutting operation, allowing for more precision and detail.
- Optimized Chip Formation: Acute angles promote the formation of smaller chips, which are easier to remove from the cutting area, improving the overall efficiency of the operation.
Examples of Cutting Operations with Acute Angles:
- Using a sharp knife to slice bread or vegetables
- Using a razor blade to shave
- Drilling holes with a sharp drill bit
- Cutting sheet metal with shears
- Milling or turning operations on a machine tool
