Signed angle

Angle2[point, apex, point] [math]\;\;\;[/math]e.g. Angle2[B,A,C] returns ∡BAC in the range -π . . . π. that is, it returns ∡BAC. tool (.ggt): [url]http://www.geogebratube.org/material/show/id/99838[/url] __________ An angle has a magnitude and a direction. Unless explicitly specified, it is always assumed that an magnitude is in the range 0 . . . π. The direction is [i]always[/i] given by its arrangement in space (geometry). In algebra, we use a sign. All theorems regarding angles take this for granted.
