FindAngle(u, v)
u, v
-
two lines or circles
The routine finds the angle between two lines u and v, or between two circles u and v.
When u and v are two lines, the smaller angle between two lines is reported.
When u and v are two circles, the angle returned is in the range 0..Pi.
The command with(geometry,FindAngle) allows the use of the abbreviated form of this command.
