Common Mistakes

⚠️

Mistake: Confusing ∠ (angle) with ⟨ (left angle bracket)

Fix: Use ∠ (∠) for geometric angles. The angle brackets ⟨⟩ (⟨ ⟩) are used for bra-ket notation and vectors.

⚠️

Mistake: Using < instead of ∠ for angle notation

Fix: In geometry, use ∠ABC not <ABC for angle notation. The less-than sign < is a comparison operator, not an angle symbol.
