Expert Solution
Step 1
In a saw-horse projection, a molecule is viewed from an angle, rather than side-on. A saw-horse formula is a diagram used to depict a specific conformation of a molecule. Sawhorse projection, allows better visualization of the three-dimensional geometry between adjacent carbon atoms. 
 
Generally, the dihedral angle refers to the acute angle between the two planes. The obtuse angle can be found by subtracting an acute angle from 180°. Instead of intersecting two planes, sometimes they are parallel to each other. In this case, the dihedral angle between the two planes is zero.
