Hallo.
Can't understand the meaning of the phrases "from an angle", "head-on an angle" in the dialog:
- What's this?
- A 1000 words on store card APRs.
- Which looks as if it's been copied straight out of Money for Dummies. No, I wanted a thousand words on APRs from an angle.
- Is that not an angle?
- Not unless you call "head-on" an angle.
Why are they talking about angles? ![]()
Thank you for help

Def. 3.b. "An aspect, as of a problem, seen from a specific point of view."
"angle" means something like "perspective" (way of looking at something). The person wanted a more interesting/unusual perspective on the subject, but got something predictable or straightforward.
