Root Explanation

Angular → It is formed from "angulus" (meaning corner or angle) and the suffix "-ar" (used to form adjectives). The word "angular" describes something that has angles or corners, often referring to shapes or figures.

Memory Tip

Think of 'angles' ('angulus') when you picture something with corners — that's why 'angular' means having angles.
