   Jun 30, 2024 · What is an Angle? A figure formed by joining two different rays starting from the same fixed initial point is called an angle. Example of an angle ∠AOB. In the given figure, this figure is made up of two rays OA → and OB → . The common end point of two rays is called the vertex of the angle. So, O is the vertex of angle AOB.
