What is an angle?

Explanation:
An angle is formed when two rays meet at a single point, called the vertex, creating an opening between them that is measured in degrees. The description of two lines radiating from a common point captures this idea precisely—two rays sharing a vertex form the angle. The other options describe a straight line segment (a single straight path between two points), a curve with no endpoints (no vertex or opening), and a four-sided polygon (a quadrilateral), none of which define an angle.
