A

:
Angle is the union of 2 rays that have the same endpoint; measured in degrees or radians (trig.);

Below we have the BÂC angle. This name tells that A is the vertex.

You can move the points A, B and C to see what happens with the angle's measure.




:
Bisection is a ray that divides an angle in two angles with the same measure.

Move around the points to see what happens to the bisection for different angle's measures.
