Although not correctly spelled, these words might qualify as homophones (words that sound alike, but have a different spelling). HOMONYMS are words that sound alike but have different meanings. Homophones are a type of homonym that also sound alike and have different meanings, but have different spellings. HOMOGRAPHS are words that are spelled the same but have different meanings. Heteronyms are a type of homograph that are also spelled the same and have different meanings, but sound different. WORDS THAT BOTH SOUND THE SAME AND ARE SPELLED THE SAME are both homonyms (same sound) and homographs (same spelling).
angle - the space between two lines or planes that intersect; the inclination of one line to another; measured in degrees or radians
An angle is a measure of rotation. Angles are measured in degrees. One complete rotation is measured as 360Â°. Angle measure can be positive or negative, depending on the direction of rotation. The angle measure is the amount of rotation between the two rays forming the angle. Rotation is measured from the initial side to the terminal side of the angle. Positive angles (Figure a) result from counterclockwise rotation, and negative angles (Figure b) result from clockwise rotation. An angle with its initial side on the xâaxis is said to be in standard position.
