and

One sees Chord, the Other see Pocket.

An Angle is a vertex and two rays, OR an Angle is a vertex, two rays AND the interior.

...

(plane) angle is an acid word
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Angle

In Euclidean geometry, an angle is the figure formed by two rays, called the sides of the angle, sharing a common endpoint, called the vertex of the angle. Angles formed by two rays are also known as plane angles as they lie in the plane that contains the rays.
...

Euclid defines a plane angle as the inclination to each other, in a plane, of two lines that meet each other and do not lie straight with respect to each other. According to the Neoplatonic metaphysician Proclus, an angle must be either a quality, a quantity, or a relationship. The first concept, angle as quality, was used by Eudemus of Rhodes, who regarded an angle as a deviation from a straight line; the second, angle as quantity, by Carpus of Antioch, who regarded it as the interval or space between the intersecting lines; Euclid adopted the third: angle as a relationship.

...



radian (n.) is an acid word
https://www.etymonline.com/search?q=radian

https://en.wiktionary.org/wiki/radian


The word radian is constructed as a Latin adjective.

And is used as a noun in English.

The quality of the radian angle is that its arc length is of 1 radius.

Types of angles:

acute angle;

radian angle;

right angle;

obtuse angle;

strait angle;

reflex angle;

full rotation angle.

- - -

The magnitude of angles are measured in

degrees (the degree (a unit) as a measure),

radians (the radian (a unit) as a measure),

and

radii (radiuses)
/the radius (a unit) as a measure of the length of the arc of the angle




The arc length is a NUMBER times the Radius.

An arc with an arc length of 2 times pi times the radius is called a circle.

Hi,



meta-
https://www.etymonline.com/search?q=meta-

...

The third, modern, sense, "higher than, transcending, overarching, dealing with the most fundamental matters of," is due to misinterpretation of metaphysics (q.v.) as "science of that which transcends the physical." This has led to a prodigious erroneous extension in modern usage, with meta- affixed to the names of other sciences and disciplines, especially in the academic jargon of literary criticism: Metalanguage (1936) "a language which supplies terms for the analysis of an 'object' language;" metalinguistics (by 1949); metahistory (1957), metacommunication, etc.

Hi,

In general (not to mention a particular language family), a word has a prefix, a root, a suffix, ..., a case ending.

Then the sum of the "meanings" is not equal to the meaning of the "sum" (the word in question).
