Phase angle

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

In the context of vectors and phasors, the term phase angle refers to the angular component of the polar coordinate representation. The notation   for a vector with magnitude (or amplitude) A and phase angle θ, is called angle notation.

In the context of periodic phenomena, such as a wave, phase angle is synonymous with phase.
