anguláris

Anguláris is an adjective used in Hungarian and in some technical contexts to denote properties related to angles or angular relationships. It describes objects, measurements, or phenomena that involve angles, as opposed to linear or radial dimensions. The term is common in geometry, physics, astronomy, and engineering, where angular quantities are fundamental.

Etymology and scope: Anguláris derives from Latin angulus, meaning “angle,” with the suffix -aris, and has been incorporated into Hungarian scientific vocabulary as a loanword. It is cognate with the English word angular and with similar forms in other languages.

In mathematics and physics: Angular measures describe the size of an angle, typically given in radians or degrees. On a circle of radius r, the arc length s is related to the angle θ by s = rθ. The term is used in several standard concepts: angular distance (difference in direction between two rays), angular velocity ω = dθ/dt, angular momentum L = r × p, and angular acceleration α = dω/dt. In astronomy and computer graphics, angular coordinates specify orientation or position on a sphere, such as longitude and latitude analogs on a celestial sphere or a viewpoint in a 3D scene.
