(n) : a figure formed by two rays which start from a common point (a plane angle) or by three planes that intersect (a solid angle); the measure of such a figure. In the case of a plane angle, this is the ratio (or proportional to the ratio) of the arc length to the radius of a section of a circle cut by the two rays, centered at their common point. In the case of a solid angle, this is the ratio of the surface area to the square of the radius of the section of a sphere

(v) : to place (something) at an angle; to try to catch fish with a hook and line
