Definition
角度 (jiǎo dù) covers both a physical angle (e.g., in photography or geometry) and a figurative point of view. Compared to 视角 (shì jiǎo), which emphasizes visual or formal perspective, 角度 is more general and everyday. 观点 (guān diǎn) is strictly an opinion or standpoint, without the physical sense.
