Biangular

/baɪˈæŋɡjələr/ adjective

Definition

Having two angles or angular features.

Etymology

From Latin 'bi-' meaning two and 'angulus' meaning angle or corner. Created as a mathematical/geometric term.

Kelly Says

Biangular shapes don't show up often in nature or everyday life—you'd more likely say 'two-angled'—but mathematicians love creating these precise Latin-derived terms.
