The figure or space outlined by the diverging of two lines from a common point or by the meeting of two planes.2. A projecting or sharp corner.  A ANGLE: The A angle is the relationship between the long axis of the patella and the tibial tuberosity; the Q angle describes the relationship between the long axis of the femur, measured from the anterior superior ilac spine.A angleThe orientation of the patella relative to the tibial tubercle. The angle is formed by the intersection of a line bisecting the long axis of the patella and a passed through the tibial tubercle to the apex of the inferior pole of the patella.

This angle is normally 35° in infancy; with maturation of the skeleton it increases to 45°.

If these lines are parallel, the angle is zero; if they diverge, a negative angle is formed. pontine angleCerebellopontine angle.prophy angleIn dentistry, a wheel containing pieces of wire. It is used for cleaning metal surfaces. pubic angleThe angle formed by the junction of the rami of the pubic bones.Q angleThe acute angle formed by a line from the anterior superior iliac spine of the pelvis through the center of the patella and a line from the tibial tubercle through the patella. The angle describes the tracking of the patella in the trochlear groove of the femur. In women, the Q angle should be less than 22° with the knee in extension and less than 9° with the knee in 90° of flexion. In men, the Q angle should be less than 18° with the knee in extension and less than 8° with the knee in 90° of flexion.
