The angle in the image can have different names depending on how we label the points on the line. Here are some possible names for the angle:

  • If we label the points as A, B, and C from left to right, then the angle is angle ABC or angle CBA.
  • If we label the points as D, E, and F from right to left, then the angle is angle DEF or angle FED.
  • If we label the points as G, H, and I from top to bottom, then the angle is angle GHI or angle IHG.
  • If we label the points as J, K, and L from bottom to top, then the angle is angle JKL or angle LKJ.

The name of the angle does not depend on the order of the letters, as long as the middle letter is the vertex of the angle. For example, angle ABC is the same as angle CBA, but not the same as angle BAC or angle CAB.
